Many years ago when I was a smoker, I never got a cold.
I wonder whether current smokers or 'vaper's have a resistance to Covid?

My daughter’s mother in law (62) is about to get her leg chopped off below
the knee thanks to smoking.

Don't know but apparently smoking and the selling of the cigarettes is to be
banned in New Zealand very soon now.The big problem over there is the Maoris
as they are the ones who still smoke.

Its just another contributory factor to killing us. I guess if you can
actually stop one of the things why would you not do so. The answer of
course is both money taxes etc, and addiction.
In small quantities the drug is not really the issue, its all the crud that
comes from burning tobacco that is, its like shoving your head into a
chimney every day when a coal fire is burning. I remember the smogs in
London and I guess it may well be that from then and my parents smoking for
years, my life will be limited by prior damage.
If you think its got get a smoking machine and a hood and see how long you
last!

They want to make it so that those who aren't old enough to have ever legally
bought tobacco already, will never be legally able to buy it, by having an age
limit that constantly slides upwards.

At some point you'll get a 60 year-old talking a 75 year-old into going
into the shop & buying fags for them.

It'll probably start a black market* in imported cigarettes.
