Liquor Does Not Reduce Coronavirus Risk

Social media users on Facebook have shared an image online showing a letter from a hospital in Kansas City that reads: “After extensive research, our findings show that consuming alcoholic beverages may help reduce the risk of infection by the novel coronavirus; COVID-19. Vodka is the most recommended for drinking, cleaning, and sanitizing.”

Another Facebook user wrote a status advising people to drink alcohol before kissing anyone, recommending Smirnoff and adding the hashtag for “coronavirus."
