There have been some interesting developments in the past few day about smoking and the Wuhan virus ...
It appears that cigarette smokers have a very much reduced rate of sickness and hospitalization.
Like only 25% of normal? 
Smokers Hospitalized Less Often for COVID-19
Fact check: Are smokers at less risk for contracting the coronavirus?
They're looking at the effect of nicotine on the ACE2 receptors.
So ... I'm wondering ... is there any data on cannabinoids yet? @SweetSue do you know much about the ACE2? I did run across some info on terpenes ...
Could cannabis terpene formulation treat COVID-19?
And there's a Canadian study - kinda deep, but they conclude ...
5. Based on our preliminary data, extracts of novel efficacious C. sativa lines, pending further investigations, may become a useful addition to the treatment of COVID-19, and an excellent GRAS adjunct therapy. They may also be used to develop additional easy-to-use preventative strategies such as mouth wash and throat gargle products that may be tested for their potential to decrease viral entry via the oral cavity and may be used both in clinical practice and at-home treatment.

Heheh, I'm feelin' pretty good about being a lifelong smoker.
Sometimes yer the windshield, sometimes yer the bug.

My personal belief is that the best way to fight COVID is by boosting the immune system and, generally speaking, while cannabis has a bunch of benefits, strengthening the immune system is not one of them. While it's possible that gargling with some East Coast Sour Diesel extract may somehow inhibit COVID, I can't believe it would be more effective than, for example, gargling with an H2O2 solution or colloidal silver.There have been some interesting developments in the past few day about smoking and the Wuhan virus ...

This is a pretty good article that has some of the plusses & minuses of cannabis as related to COVID:
Can Cannabis Prevent Coronavirus? - Diem Cannabis
In the end I think Wuhan virus isn’t the deadly bio weapon they thought. It’s just another variation of seasonal flu. I’m sure we’ll be hearing about cures and preventatives as time goes on.

I've been wondering about immune system function and this virus. They say one of the fatal conditions is a "cytokine storm" when the immune system goes code red and attacks everything in sight. Until then it's manageable, but people will flip and die within hours.
My family has a history of elevated immune function. We have some Multiple Sclerosis, and odd immune behavior. So if cannabis regulates immune system function, it's probably a plus for me.
And I've smoked cigarettes for 52 years, too.

I’ve read the runaway immune response isn’t as common as the media are preaching.
Well, it's certainly not the TYPE of bio weapon that was portrayed, but it's being used as a weapon none-the-less. When they'll arrest a hard-working business owner trying to open his "non-essential" business so he can support his family at the same time they're releasing convicted felons from prisons, I'd say it's being used as a weapon!
It’ll get ugly this summer, most need to keep there heads down.
It's gonna be nice on the plane though, having some room to move around!
The way it was before was too crowded. If that phukker crashes, the last thing I want to go through my mind is a thought about a loved one or a good time, not the a$$ of the guy sitting in front of me.....

Movies and concerts will be great; all sorts of leg room! Lap dances are gonna suck though. You think wrestling looked fake before? Now they gotta do it six feet apart!

It’s gonna be roughlol
Everybody around here's wearing a mask. It's kind of eerie. I can't even find a bandanna; all I got is a big fishbowl I could put on my head, but as many blunts as I smoke I'd wind up looking like Mysterio from Spiderman. Probably be walking into light posts from not being able to see through the smoke.
On second thought, with my bad luck I'd catch my hair on fire trying to light the blunt and the fishbowl would get stuck on my head. I'm probably better off taking my chances with the virus even though that would be a lot cooler looking than Mysterio.
If you want to have a few laughs go to Walmart and walk around.

Lol, that's good for most any day! I love my Walmart and the people who shop there including my own self, but ya gotta admit ...
I don't like not seeing people's faces. I'd rather wear one of those plastic wrap-around shield things. Plop my hat back on top and I'm good!
I think I was memorable today in the grocery store.
I have no manners, apparently. There were old farts wearing masks and shying away as I breezed by them, all bare nekkid faced like usual. Masked moms were pulling their masked kids to the side ...
Almost no-one here is wearing a mask!
Well, the nurse that came to do my bloods recently was wearing one, but she had it pulled down below her nose - presumably so she could breathe more easily whadd’yagonndo?
