From the December 2, 2020, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1920. 100 Years Ago.
"If you had the real Spanish flu back in 1918 and 1919, and didn't die of it you won't have it again.
"You can start in the winter with a perfectly light heart and no worry whatsoever as how to treat yourself in the case of a fresh attack, now that the time-honored whiskey and quinine cure is no longer integrally available."
Prohibition started in January 1920.
It is too bad that these days in 2020 that if you get the virus and survive you only get a temporary immunity from it.
No Whiskey for You. --Cooter
