My daughter, son-in-law and grandson came down with COVID-19 in December 2020, not knowing that it was COVID-19 at the time. We were together several times (especially over the Holidays). I did not get it - not even a sniffle. I just read something on Twitter that smokers are not susceptible to COVID because nicotine has a similar effect that Inver and Hydro in suppressing the virus. Obviously, I am a smoker. In addition, I’ve never had a flu shot and never had the flu. Has anyone else read details about this?

No. But for years I have used a nicotine infusion to kill parasites on houseplants.

My son came down with the full body rash in late November 2020. Because we had direct contact we firmly believe, yes we got it, no we didn’t get any symptoms. I smoke, my wife doesn’t. Other than getting the flu for four days in February 2021 I’ve been perfectly healthy. No asymptomatic spread to anyone I’ve ever been in contact with since 2020.
