Dr Shahid Masood Says Eating Popcorn Can Prevent Coronavirus By Boosting Immunity

Senior journalist and anchor Dr Shahid Masood on his latest show claimed that eating popcorn is the most effective way to boost one’s immunity and prevent coronavirus.

In a video clip of the show that is doing the rounds on social media, Dr Masood could be heard saying: “Against the new wave of COVID-19, the most effective way to boost immunity is to eat popcorn.”

No research by any reputable organisation and WHO has declared popcorn as a possible remedy for COVID-19. Dr. Masood’s claim therefore generated amusing comments and jibes on Twitter.
