This Helps With Not Catching Covid?

Saw this little “buried” article the other day.  According to a study from scientists  in the U.K., those who had five or more glasses of red wine a week lowered their chance of getting Covid by 17%.  I found this interesting since I joined my wife up for a wine club and now she gets a box delivered every so often.  While she’s not a heavy drinker, heck, one bottle will go bad most of the time before she finishes it, she does enjoy learning all about the craft of making it and learning the different areas where the grapes were grown for any given bottle.  But I may have given my wife a very beneficial way to help protect herself. lol By the way, white wine and champagne also had an effect by being able to lower the risk by around 8%, but this only applies to wine.  People who drank any amount of beer or spirits had an increased risk.  For the whole story that gives you the whats and whys, just click here.
