I would love an update on how everyone is doing. @topochico225 and @Kiki 's friend. There were a couple more sick. I'm having a brain fart moment can't remember everyones names.

Me too! I really hope theyre ok. I talked to my boss today and asked him how he treated his covid. He said after he tested positive he called his doctor and asked him. "Two shots of whiskey before bed" is what the doctor said. My boss thought that was strange but did so regardless. Woke up the next morning completely uncongested. He was still tired but it worked. My mom always soaked a clover of garlic in vodka as a flu remedy. She'd eat the garlic whole and then down the vodka. So maybe there is something to it.

If you do get covid it can go into pneumonia while your blood o2 level is still good. Go for an X-ray.

Wonder if any booze would do, I can’t stomach whiskey.

No the alcohol kills the bacteria in your throat. It was two shots before bed. Key item: go to sleep.

Nyquil contains a small amount of alcohol but I think the reason for whiskey was the high alcohol content. Vodka should do the trick I suspect.

I hope everyone manages to stay symptom free that are. The rest I hope will do well recover quickly.

DD and DW are sick as s#!&. I have been doing fine.

Whiskey and camphor was a standard remedy for coughs for a LONG time.
(I would skip the camphor and take as directed,)
