I didn't already need a reason, but now I drink to my health.
While the World Health Organization vehemently disagrees, Dr. Juergen Rissland, a lead doctor at the Institute for Virology at Saarland University Hospital in Germany, went on the record to say: Drinking whiskey can protect against COVID-19. And that is definitely one report we can all get behind. While appearing on "The Morning Show," Dr. Rissland was asked about whether or not drinking alcohol could kill any viruses a person may have ingested. "Yes, of course, that's true," Dr. Rissland responded. "And the higher the percentage of alcohol, the better it is. For example, if you are a whisky lover, then that certainly isn't a bad idea," he continued, while offering this bit of sage advice to pace yourself: "But of course you need to bear in mind that you can't do that every 15 minutes, that is something else to consider."

I love the Germans. They prescribe beer as part of a healing regimen sometimes.

The virus wouldn’t get the chance to kill me if I started drinking whiskey again.

I believe that this calls for a CDC sponsored series of trials, for the next 12-18 months. Each trial will study each brand of whiskey, both with, and without hookers. Without will be considered the placebo group. Fully funded by the Federal government, of course.

My grandma's sister lived until 94, may have been still alive if she hadn't fell out the front door and off the porch. She always said she drinks so much alcohol she's preserved.

That was also what some Doctors did during the 1918-20 pandemic.
Whiskey was helpful in lower or getting rid of the fluid that was being build up the patient's lungs. |

Can’t remember just how many handles of Maker’s Mark I have destroyed since this Black Plague began. It has been quite the struggle to fight this bugger off. ??

It would seem you'd need something a bit more potent than the typical 80 proof stuff to get the alcohol volume up to sufficient virus killing levels. I'm thinking Bacardi 151 would do the job, as would Absinthe, Everclear and some of that stuff the good old boys in the hill country make.
