French Researchers Suggest Smoking Reduces Covid-19 Risk
The group of scientists suspect either that nicotine could stop the virus from infecting cells or that nicotine was preventing the immune system from overreacting to the virus, The Guardian reported. It comes after a French study found that not many people who had caught the virus were regular smokers.
To put this theory to test, the researchers intend to provide Covid-19 patients in and out of intensive care with nicotine patches.

The would also test it on healthcare workers to analyse whether it can prevent the spread of the virus
The study concluded that far fewer smokers seem to have caught the virus and, if they have, their symptoms are less severe.

“Our cross-sectional study strongly suggests that those who smoke every day are much less likely to develop a symptomatic or severe infection with Sars-CoV-2 compared with the general population,” the study reads.

“The effect is significant. It divides the risk by five for ambulatory patients and by four for those admitted to hospital.

I feel so bad for her and Fauci. This might be the worst I've seen from him, and he's hit some damned catastrophic moments.

I'm surprised no one has taken him out by now. I didn't like Pence at all till all this kicked off but I wish he was our president right now. His views on abortion and gay marriage aren't that important right now.

You feel bad for Fauci eh?
Run down his 80's HIV/AIDS pharma fiasco.
You'll wonder, like many of us, why he's even on stage.

Is he more qualified than Trump who thinks we should be injecting DISINFECTANT into our veins?

I honestly hadn't heard about Donald Trump advising us to inject ourselves with disinfectant.
If we're talking qualifications, pharmacologically, epidemiological etc., I'd say Faucci is more qualified to know the truth.
Whether he follows through with his hippocratic oath this time is my concern.
His track record as far as I'm concerned is criminal.

I totally understand why people would want to be comatosed into a relaxing complacency with Bush Jr.2.0 AKA Pence right now though.
I've noticed that more and more people prefer a monarchy-type figure over a leader,; a bill he certainly fits.
I prefer Trump simply because he cuts through bullshit that no one else will, and because he's exposing the medias blatant bias, narratives, and motives amidst, imo, a maniacal soft coup attempt.

I'd certainly pick Pence as my frontman in many cases, Trump conceded his installment as VP as a greenlight to nomination from the GOP afterall.
But I don't expect Trump to change character and start laying down for a tyrannical government and media globalist agenda either, which Pence would most certainly do at our detriment, most romantically.
