There's only one possible conclusion here. We're being hunted down by people with Swine Flu, who want to drink alcohol, but aren't sure if it's a good idea.
Now we're not experts in alcohol. But it does seem to us that alcohol suppresses the immune system. It causes a loss of body temperature, even when you think you're warming up. So on the whole it's not something that's going to build up your resistance.
While Swine Flu is particularly dangerous for people who have lowered immune systems.
Let's put those two together. A drug that lowers your resistance, and a disease that is much worse for people who have lowered resistance.

But you didn't really want to hear that, did you?
Dear Archdruid,
ReplyDeleteI think you left out a crucial bit of information: a high dosage of alcohol will kill the virus. Remember the acohol gel story?
Ok, drinking too much alcohol might kill the person, too, but there we are.
Cheers,
ah so drinking alcohol gel might be the break through cure the NHS has been searching for????
ReplyDeleteI prefer red wine myself, but it makes my hands sticky....
