Nicotine prevents COVID 19?

Nicotine prevents COVID 19

New study coming out of France suggests that use of nicotine can help prevent the COVID - 19 disease.

There have been conflicting reports on whenever cigarette smokers are more or less probable to get the COVID-19 disease or how severely their response is. One factor which wasn’t taken into account was nicotine. The previous reports didn’t differentiate between the use of nicotine and smoking as they are not one and the same, something many vapers brought up when discussing the previously mentioned reports.

The effect of nicotine could be the explanation behind the conflicting results on smoking and COVID - 19. The high rates of smoking in Italy were used as arguments to explain the high death rates as the percentage of smokers were high in critical cases with 17% of those affected being smokers. Ex

A team in France, is currently investigating whenever nicotine can help prevent COVID-19 infections. There is a large body of evidence which suggests that nicotine contributes to regulating the body’s response to the virus. “It’s an interesting possibility” according to the French Health Minister.

According to the researchers, nicotine could occupy receptors, which prevents the virus from repairing. They hypothesize that this could put a stop to the development of the disease.

At this moment in time researches are planning on testing nicotine patches using different patient groups and dosage levels to test the theory.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
