FILE - Freeze frame from FOX News coverage on red wine COVID-19 study. (FOX)A recent study from the United Kingdom found certain types of alcohol could impact how susceptible a person is to getting COVID-19.

The study, published in the scientific journal Frontiers on Jan. 3, found that people who drank red wine, white wine and champagne were less likely to get COVID-19 while those who consumed beer, cider, and spirits in heavy amounts were more likely to become sick.

This study included 473,957 subjects, 16,559 of whom tested positive for COVID-19, the study authors wrote. Researchers set guidelines for the amount of alcohol patients consumed on a week-to-week basis with four different categories which included less than 14 units of alcohol consumed, more than 14 units, less than 28 units consumed and greater than 28 units. "Our study suggests that subjects who usually consumed red wine and white wine and champagne above guidelines, and sometimes consumed 1–2 glasses/week fortified within the guidelines appear to have chances to reduce the risk of COVID-19.

The consumption of beer and cider are not recommended regardless of frequency and amount of alcohol consumption, which increased the risk of COVID-19.
