Russia warns no alcohol consumption for 2 months after receiving vaccine

Just The News: Russian health officials are warning citizens that their newly developed Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine could strain the body if mixed with alcohol during the first two months of vaccination.

On average, Russians consume nearly four gallons of alcohol every year, and they are the fourth heaviest alcohol consumers in the world. The news that alcohol is not a good idea with the vaccine may come as a surprise to many, especially the 100,000 Russians who have already been vaccinated.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Tatiana Golikova explained in an interview how people will need to take precautions for 42 days after injection.

“[Russians] will have to refrain from visiting crowded places, wear face masks, use sanitizers, minimize contacts and refrain from drinking alcohol or taking immunosuppressant drugs,” Golikova told TASS News Agency.

    OK OK wait. Stop your life saving drugs so you can get shot with a drug that causes more problems than you already have?
    Great idea.
