The black tea needed only one tea bag per cup.
They hyperventilated about ivermectin, but now, this?
I wonder if a tablespoon of vinegar would do the same thing?

Well good for me - I drink black tea almost every day.
Have not had a covid symptom ever.
Coincidental? I'm not complaining
I tested positive once, last Oct after spending the night in the hospital, for a procedure.
Had no symptoms, Zero, Zilch, Nada.
Although I jokingly refer to it as covfefe, black tea has been my morning cuppa since forever.
Bleach can do better than that...LOL
Or Whiskey.
Since no virus has ever been isolated, no way tea against virus has been studied. Aren’t you getting tired of this BS yet?
Guess I’m gonna die.
I’m allergic to any
type of caffinated tea.
Makes my heart race a
million miles an hour,
pretty much like taking
a beni.

Better pack some teabags.
My eyes glaze over when reading the linked medical articles, so I didn’t do it.
Did it mention how many cups, or gargles, per day?
However, while helping saliva,
A respiratory virus or bacteria invades the nose, the main point of entry into the body. Immediately, the front of the nose detects the germ, well before the back of the nose is aware of the intruder, the team discovered. At that point, cells lining the nose immediately begin creating billions of simple copies of themselves called extracellular vesicles, or EV’s. “EV’s can’t divide like cells can, but they are like little mini versions of cells specifically designed to go and kill these viruses,” Bleier said. “EV’s act as decoys, so now when you inhale a virus, the virus sticks to these decoys instead of sticking to the cells.”
Those “Mini Me’s” are then expelled by the cells into nasal mucus (yes, snot), where they stop invading germs before they can get to their destinations and multiply. “This is one of, if not the only part of the immune system that leaves your body to go fight the bacteria and viruses before they actually get into your body,” Bleier said. Cells in the body also contain a viral killer called micro RNA, which attack invading germs. Yet EVs in the nose contained 13 times micro RNA sequences than normal cells, the study found.
So the nose comes to battle armed with some extra superpowers. But what happens to those advantages when cold weather hits?... “What we found is that when you’re exposed to cold air, the temperature in your nose can drop by as much as 9 degrees Fahrenheit. And that’s enough to essentially knock out all three of those immune advantages that the nose has,” Bleier said. In fact, that little bit of coldness in the tip of the nose was enough to take nearly 42% of the extracellular vesicles out of the fight, Bleier said. - https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/06/health/why-winter-colds-flu-wellness/index.html
I wonder how Mullein Leaf tea would compare in these test. I couldn’t find the list of 24. Back in 2019 I had a SARs (covid?) episode/acute exacerbation event. I attribute the Mullein leaf tea to saving my life. I could not cough up the phlegm in my lungs and the tea brought it right out. This is definitely part of my covid kit now.
That reminds me, I’ve gotta’ get some more Darjeeling. Got plenty of English Breakfast tea.
Respectfully, I have to doubt this one. My husband drinks at least 4 Lipron teas a day and still managed to get Covid twice. Granted, his immune system isn’t strong, but for him, black tea didn’t help. That’s not to say, of course, that it can’t have some medicinal value, like other teas.
Please ignore the haters. Your posts are appreciated.
