    Wrong nicotine downregulates ACE2 which is the receptor in your lungs that the Coronavirus spike proteins attaches itself too. Also tobacco has antiviral properties that can clear up viral infections and nicotine reduces lung inflammation

  • Apr 3, 2020

    they dont say it increases your chances from getting it tho
    but if it passes to your lungs and youre a smoker your risk of complications is higher, which makes sense

    The theory needs to be studied more hence a theory

    There’s data going each way

    This is saying being a current smoker is better than a former smoker lol
