WATCH: John Daly says drink vodka to kill coronavirus

John Daly has gone against the advice of the World Health Organisation in a bizarre YouTube video by urging people to drink vodka on a daily basis in order to "kill this coronavirus."

Daly, 53, appeared in The Trump Organisation's YouTube video on April 9, and the 50-second clip has racked up more than 19,000 views...

"I only drink one drink a day, it just happens to be a bottle of good old Belvedere," said Daly, who looked a little worse for wear as he held a bottle of vodka to the camera.

"Just drink one of these a day. You know, sippy, sippy on a McDonald’s diet coke ya know, wash it down pretty good. Never have a hangover.

"That’s the way you kill this coronavirus I believe. But ya’ll be safe, take care and hopefully we’ll be getting back to the things we do best pretty soon."

Daly's advice goes against that of the World Health Organisation (WHO) who has recently made it clear that alcohol may put people at an increased risk of the coronavirus. 

The WHO recently released a fact sheet that dispelled certain myths regarding alcohol consumption and COVID-19. 

Two-time major winner Daly has struggled with health issues and alcohol addiction in the past. 

Daly suffered from a collapsed lung and was hospitalised five years ago, with doctors believing he had a heart attack.
