As several health tips are doing rounds on social media for prevention and cure for COVID-19, there’s been a debate rising on the internet on whether drinking tea can prevent the infection.
MyGov India tweeted saying this is a myth.
It wrote, “…there is NO scientific evidence that it can prevent #COVID19 or make you recover from it faster! Don’t be misled by rumours, trust authentic sources and be responsible while forwarding such news,”
The only way to prevent contracting COVID-19 is by taking adequate precautions like wearing masks, sanitising hands and maintaining social distance, and ensuring that you get vaccinated as soon as possible, while drinking tea can help boost immunity.
