    When the smoke clears, all of your drunken bums In your city who live in a garbage can, and drunk every day, and never wash their hands or do anything that the so-called experts tell everyone to do, who are older than your great-grandfather and should be considered high risk, will still be there.

    In fact, you could sit the drunken bums on a cruise ship for a month, full of corona virus victims, and they will be immune. How’s that for fruits and vegetables?

    Saying that alcohol will weaken your immune system is like saying chlorine will kill you because it is toxic. But chlorine is used to sanitize pool and even city water without hurting us. Germs etc are far more susceptible to the effects then the human body. A single drop of alcohol (or chlorine) will kill billions of germs etc but is harmless to us due to the size difference.

    Are you arguing that a healthy diet won't strengthen your immune system?

    I don’t argue. It is against my religion.

    I think this is the best cure. Best way to remove the "carbon-based" lifeforms that infest the planet earth!

    A healthy diet certainly will, but it takes time. Just like people turn to vitamin C when they have a cold. It doesn't help at all, it isn't a sudden effect. Strengthening your immune system takes months or years.

    And in terms of taking time, have you ever heard of the Hygiene Hypothesis?
    It suggests that people who are obsessed with cleanliness are actually more prone to illness because they never strengthened their immune system by subjecting it to germs. Whereas people with a complacency to cleanliness have a stronger immune system due to constant exposure to germs forcing their immune system to strengthen to protect the body.

    Actually " VERY moderate" amounts of alcohol can be beneficial to good health. I used to average a beer a day most evenings for the better part of 20 years before I got sick, sounds like a contradiction there I know. I don't think WEBMD can be called a hack website either.
