I've been really worried because I lost my sense of smell around October 14th or 15th. I got tested on the 16th and my ct value came back as 27. I've been isolating since the 15th, and I haven't had any other symptoms. My oxygen, pulse, and temperature have all been normal, and thankfully my sense of smell has returned. I'm just wondering, when is it safe for me to come out of isolation?

I've heard some people say that drinking alcohol in moderation can be good for your health, but others argue that even a little bit isn't beneficial at all. I'm feeling a bit confused about this and would love to get some clarity. Is there any truth to the idea that a small amount of alcohol can actually be good for you, or should it really be avoided completely?

Moderate alcohol consumption, defined as up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men, may have potential health benefits, such as reduced risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer, due to antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties found in some alcoholic beverages; however, excessive drinking can lead to numerous health problems, including liver disease, certain cancers, and injuries
