I read yesterday that if you drink lots of fluids throughout the day it increases the chance of washing the virus (if you ingested it)down into the stomach where stomach acid will kill it; rather than it getting into the lungs. Don't know if this is correct but it was a "health care professional" who was saying it.
Interesting.
That’s probably bogus. But being hydrated helps you fight bugs. Also viruses is among the stuff your body flushes out in pee. Be hydrated, pee more, flush away bad stuff.
