Gargling treats COVID?
 
I thought my experience was just unscientific conjecture until I read this today:

COVID-19 transmission could be prevented by mouthwash, study suggests | Fox News

^Shazam! When I was sick in February the only thing that made me feel better was gargling. Did I officially have COVID? Who really knows since there were no tests then. While I felt bad, I tried gargling with salt water, with hydrogen peroxide/water, with mouthwash but my favorite was gargling with straight Vodka because the relief lasted a lot longer. It really helped me feel better. Unscientific? Yes. But if it actually helped others, wouldn’t that be great! It’s simple, readily-accessible and cheap so I t’s worth a try, right? So if you start to feel a sore throat and dry cough, why not try gargling at least until you can go to the doctor or hospital if you need to. Stay well, Villagers.

Would scotch work?

Early April I started getting a sore throat. Had an Uber driver pick up a bottle of 151 Rum for me. Did a few shots per day and sore throat went away.

The only way to be sure is nuke it with 151. :coolsmiley:
