Worried about COVID? Hot tip to lower your risk 9 to 1!

Are you an essential worker worried about passing on COVID to friends or family? Do what you can to avoid catching COVID!

Researchers https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3682517 treated frontline health workers in a high-risk area with a combination of quercetin, vitamin C and bromelain 2x/day for 120 days.
