ArcticCrusher Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I don't smoke but the people I know who do have be pretty much immune to covid. Something in nicotine blocks the virus is the theory.

Platinum Contributing Member Rigid1 Posted April 16, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 16, 2022 I smoke when I drive, not vaxed, no mask, no hand sanitizer, I do use a lot of mouth wash, but no covid for me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irv Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 There was a chart/graph around that I can no longer find that showed those that smoked were the very least likely to get covid. Of course I didn't, and still don't, know how accurate that was but it seemed legit. I smoke, unfortunately, and haven't had a single covid symptom since this all began for whatever that is worth.

If it does have something to do with nicotine I wonder if a nicotine gum or lozenge would also work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I felt kinda off over the weekend, yesterday afternoon and evening felt like shit, 101.8 temp, headache. Took a home test and it's positive. So I'm not so sure on the tar or nicotine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something in nicotine blocks the virus is the theory. Let's hear what others have experienced? I have had it multiple times and smoke. Vaxed made no difference. Only reason I got tested the last time was I didn’t want to go to work meeting. It came positive so I got to stay home. I basically had the chills and sweats for 3 days. Then felt fine but was super tired for like 3 weeks afterwards. Side effect from the vid is I get random random sinus infections I never had before getting covid the first time.
