maybe because 80% of smokers worldwide are men? smokers have weaker lungs.

Clear na siguro ako? I stopped smoking more than 5 yrs ago. Dati around 6 to 8 sticks a day ako. I have to thank the government, they made smoking hard kasi, halos lahat ng lugar bawal at nawala kasi brand ko (mild seven)

Over 300 cases now.

This sudden surge is due to the arrival of new German test kits that finally got to Manila. Expect the numbers to grow as more test kits reach Manila.

Hindi pwede yan. Discrimination yan kasi pareho pa rin na air pollutants.

A month ago, customs seized a container full of frozen chicken from China. I wonder if that container eventually got released to the importer

Our frontliners need our prayers. Here in Q.C. a doctor died, and another one infected his family already -- just heart-breaking. Damn these polticos.

"Belmonte: What is interesting about our cases is we have a lot of medical practitioners. We have a doctor who lives in Brgy Damayang Lagi; he has now also contaminated his family. Now 3 of them have #COVID19PH. We also have a doctor in Brgy Bahay Toro who is positive *ABSCBNNews"

"Belmonte: We also now have a case in Barangay Fairview. The sixth is quite sad, he is a doctor, and he has passed on. But the results came in after his death. #COVID19PH *ABSCBNNews"

Covid-19: How smoking, vaping and drug use might increase risks from the novel coronavirus - CNN

However, another group of people could be particularly vulnerable to Covid-19 and hasn't received as much attention: people who smoke, vape or have substance use disorders.

"[T]he research community should be alert to the possibility that [Covid-19] could hit some populations with substance use disorders particularly hard," Dr. Nora Volkow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse wrote in a blog post published last week.

Because Covid-19 attacks the lungs, those who smoke tobacco or marijuana or who vape may be especially threatened, Volkow said.

"When someone's lungs are exposed to flu or other infections the adverse effects of smoking or vaping are much more serious than among people who do not smoke or vape," Stanton Glantz, professor of medicine and director of the Center for Tobacco Research Control & Education at University of California, San Francisco, wrote in a blog post updated Tuesday.

"Vaping affects your lungs at every level. It affects the immune function in your nasal cavity by affecting cilia which push foreign things out...[T]he ability of your upper airways to clear viruses is compromised," Glantz said in a phone interview.

People who smoke are generally at an increased risk of serious complications, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome, when they have a severe infection.

The odds of a Covid-19 case becoming more severe -- and at the most extreme, leading to death -- were 14 times higher among people who had a history of smoking compared to those who did not smoke, Glantz said, citing a study from China published in the peer-reviewed Chinese Medical Journal in February. The study also found those with a history of smoking had a 14% higher risk of developing pneumonia.

Didn't say from where pero he died because the patient lied about her (or his) travel history

now the question is if all that stuff will reach those who need it most

Let's wait for lazada and shopee to advertise available abundant stocks.
