Higher Alcohol Consumption Is Not Linked To Higher SARS COVID-19 Infection and Death

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) corona virus mediated COVid19 pandemic is a global concern. At the present, almost all countries of the world are home to the CoVid19 infection with varying rate. To understand the role of alcohol consumption and rate of CoVid19 infection, we conducted a comparative statistical analysis using the top CoVid19 infected countries of the world and compared them with per capita alcohol consumption per year. We found that higher alcohol consumption is not directly proportional to the higher number of CoVid19 infection and deaths. Google trend analysis for search of alcohol for last 12 months was found highest for Australia followed by New Zealand, Ireland, United States, and South Africa, suggesting sentiment of higher alcohol search also not related to the SARS CoV-2 infection and deaths.
