‘ALCOHOL INTERFERES WITH YOUR BODY’

The independent medical advisory panel for alcohol education charity, Drink Aware, explains: “While there is no published data about the specific effects of alcohol on the human body’s response to the Covid-19 vaccination, there is some evidence that drinking alcohol, especially regular heavy drinking, could interfere with your body’s ability to build immunity in response to some vaccines.

“But it’s really important to know that, even if you do drink, you’ll still benefit from having the jab, so please don’t turn it down.”
