There is a lot of "information" being put out there by the scientific (presumably, in some case anyway) community and still more from other sources regarding the coronavirus, who it affects and how, etc. They vary widely in importance/priority I guess depending on who it affects and how, etc.... but I digress. What got me thinking about this was the warning we hear repeatedly about how much more dangerous the virus is to those with underlying health problems. The most recent 2 additions to that have been obesity and ? blood type (wtf?).
Still haven't heard boo about smokers. A virus that attacks the respiratory system and smokers aren't in the highest risk group?
Feeble thoughts from feeble minds. Pictures at 11.

I think we automatically assume that smokers are high-risk, but yeah, you'd think they'd say something, especially with vaping being so popular.

I read there's evidence that smoking weed, especially with higher concentrations of cbd, reduced the chances of contracting it? Or maybe it was that because of the anti-inflammatory effects, reduced severity.... or both. I don't remember exactly as I've taken their advice and been on that therapy for a few months.
