    Cool Man with coronavirus claims he overcame illness with ‘hot whiskey and honey’

    I like this guy!

    "A British man living in China claims he beat the new coronavirus by downing glasses of “hot whiskey and honey.”Connor Reed, 25, who teaches English in Wuhan, China — the epicenter of the outbreak that has killed more than 400 people and sickened over 20,000 others worldwide — told the Sun he was diagnosed with the virus about two months ago. He said he went to the hospital after he struggled to breathe and experienced a bad cough, both of which are signs of the pneumonia-like illness."

    And live like it's heaven on earth.”

    Lol, sure... sure. The honey may have helped, but the whiskey would have just dehydrated him. He got lucky. Unfortunately alcohol is not the answer. Truth is excellent hygiene, washing hands for 20 seconds or longer, higher doses of Vitamin C and social distancing will make this virus recede from the majority of the population. Stay safe and stay healthy.

    Maybe a combination of the two divergent philosophies?!?!
