Un Paraíso MereZIHdo

There is some thought that alcohol can effect the response to vaccines. This is based on the fact that alcoholics have a somewhat diminished immune system. As best I can tell from a brief literature search, moderate drinking (one to two drinks a day)would have little, if any effect. I didn't find any actual studies that document this, the evidence seems to be mostly related to chronic alcoholics, without relevant control groups of teetolalers.

The docs here always tell us not to drink for several days after our vaccination shots. I allow a day before having a beer, and a couple before having any tequila.

Didn't feel any side effects except a sore left arm for a few hours. They gave us a shot in each arm. Hopefully our Covid-19 updated boosters will be available within the next couple of months, and hopefully they won't make Talley Ho sick as a dog this time.
