If Sakhmet (Pestilence personified as a Goddess) got drunk on Ancient Egyptian Red Beer and cured her of her illness, then will this also work on Human People?
1. In late 18th Dynasty there was an epidemic that killed many people.
2. Amonhotep 3 built numerous Sakhmet statues in an effort to 'cure it or drive it away' with Magic.
3. Couriers from the reign of King Ay sent this epidemic to the Hittites by writing letters there. The Hittite King later died from it.
4. To get Sakhmet drunk the Egyptians mixed red dye into the beer to make it appear like blood so she would drink it.
5. What was this coloring? Honey? Pomegranate juice? Red Ochre? Wine?
6. Covid19 doesn't like Alcohol in large amounts.
7. Ancient Egyptian Beer was brewed fresh so it had lots of Alcohol in it. The coloring may be the missing link here. Honey has curative properties, and alcohol is found in Cough Medicine. I am not sure about Red Ochre (a mineral clay), and Pomegranate Juice wine is also found in Medical Folklore for treating Plague Fever and Diarrhea.
