Entirely new situation

[The Dread Pirate Roberts]

I just finished a 3 gallon batch of cherry wine. It is about 13% alcohol. I also just found out I have COVID-19. Is there enough alcohol in the wine to kill any viruses, or do I have to drink it all myself?

You need at least 60% ABV to kill viruses, and 70% is better. The alcohol would kill you before it killed the virus.

Hope you have a speedy recovery, and no lasting effects.

Brew on

Arrrrgh! I believe we've just been trolled by The Dread Pirate Roberts!

Ha ha! But just to be safe, you should drink one liter a day.

If you really do have the Covid, please accept my wishes for a full recovery.
