It would be interesting if studies are done to see if smokers are less likely to get Ebola or any other epidemic diseases.

I believe that studies already address this issue.

The engineered proteins produced by the tobacco plant are purified, so that no part of the plant is present in the final drug. People won't be exposed to tar and nicotene through genetically engineered protein drugs.

Nicotine is not present in the product. The plant is used as a rapid growth medium.
