The study at a major Paris hospital suggests a substance in tobacco – possibly nicotine – may be stopping patients who smoke from catching Covid-19.

Wait. When CV first came up, they said it was killing more Chinese men than Chinese women because Chinese men are more likely to smoke.

I'll believe this news when they ask nursing home residents to start smoking again.
