I posted the CrossFit post of the NYC patient population. It supported the same finding. Prior to the examination of smoking there was the not so paradoxical finding that those with greater ACE2 receptors faired better than this with less.

As far as data lacking because of the smoking questionnaire, that is BS. I'm sure that if they look at the laboratory work they will have a pretty good approximation of the patient population who are smokers.

As far as the early reports regarding smokers being at higher risk, there are always those that will hijack a medical emergency for their political ends.

Finally, I wonder if blood hemoglobin is different with smokers and prevents heme breakdown.

Interesting, no?
