    Smokers and nicotine users are basically immune to Covid-19
    saloon if you want but this is important.

    Nicotine users, including smokers, are basically immune to Covid-19
    according to French scientists. Get your nicotine supplies today before the craze hits.



    I saw this on MSNBC did a whole 5 minute segment on it.

    The nicotine stops Covid-19 from entering cells of the body.

        they've developed immunity?

        elizabeth taylor lived to a ripe old age..... i often wondered if it was because alcohol basically killed off anything bad i.e. she was pickled (of course, alcohol causes its own life expectancy problems)........

                2 cigars a day and 4 Mich Ultras, immune.

                Seriously called this early March. The heat of the smoke or the dust of the smoke blocked the virus from attacking the lung cells.

                  Gd, imagine that. The exact opposite of what the WHO and media said. They said smokers would get hit hardest. Fukkin lyin ass CNN, NBC, Fauci and Cuomo. Pieces of shit.

                                    You can just slap a nicotine patch on or chew some nicorette. You can probably buy it with your FSA card.

                                      Meh. In China smokers were found to have a higher rate of morbidity from covid-19. I'm not ready to start destroying my lungs in the name of health yet.

                                          Weed smokers I could believe but not cig smokers.. Cig smokers usually have underlying health conditions from smoking a pack or two day for years and years..

                                          If you've only smoked cigs for a few years and are young then maybe you could be immune.. I'm not buying this data for the masses..

                                          Nothing good comes out of smoking cancer sticks..

                                              Straight organic tobacco like the Native Indians used to smoke. Cuts all the carcinogens out. Roll your own if you're not a pipe smoker type. 🚬 you buy at gas stations, hell no. Pretty much guaranteed cancer.

                                                      Will Nicotine Be a Game Changer for COVID-19 Patients?

                                                      In late January, New Zealand pharmaceutical researcher and harm reduction advocate Eliana Golberstein Rubashkyn posed a possible mechanism by which nicotine could prevent the coronavirus from adhering to the receptors in the body’s cells that are its prime entry point. She posted her suggestion on Twitter.

                                                      In late March, cardiologist and e-cigarette researcher Konstantinos Farsalinos published a preliminary study that noted the low number of smokers in published data, and proposed a similar explanation. Nicotine might block the coronavirus from finding its target cells, Farsalinos said.

                                                      Since then, data from other countries—including the United States and France—have shown similar low rates of infection among smokers, and Farsalinos has updated his study with the new information. His hypothesis has evolved to also suggest that nicotine might modulate the “hyperinflammatory” reaction of the immune system (the so-called cytokine storm) that has been noted in some of the worst COVID-19 cases. If that’s correct, nicotine might help prevent infection, and also reduce the damage caused in already infected patients.
