Was on a different post and saw that some people aren’t aware of this, thought this would be helpful.
Nicotine users, on average, have significantly lower hospitalization rates. This has to do with the way nicotine acts within the lungs, which helps kill covid in the lungs. Getting covid in the lungs is what makes someone go to the hospital, so nicotine use can help in preventing it. I’m linking a clinical trials study that explains the details much better than I can.
Here’s also another study that links the use of marijuana and lower hospitalization rates as well. https://www.foxla.com/news/study-thc-in-marijuana-could-help-avert-fatal-covid-19-complications
My personal suspicion is that it’s the act of putting smoke in your lungs which fucks with the virus there.
I had COVID recently and got through it in a day, specifically went and grabbed my pipe tobacco and my weed.
