Hairdresser intel: smokers don't catch covid | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 76396190 United States 03/10/2021 06:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So basically it may not stop you from catching it but smoking may actually keep you alive if you do get it. I used to know a guy on another message board, 10 years ago he was warning of a superflu and he said to keep a pack of smokes around. Everyone made fun of him. He was spot on. |

Quoting: SugarSand Masked hardresser ... old friend ... decades long hairdresser ... she used to have her own shop which was like a TV barber shop with the gossip and such but now we're at a new salon so she's whispering in my ear ... she said: All the nurses say smokers don't get covid. They all started smoking again. They say all of those people on ventilators are non-smokers, and they haven't had smokers dying. I said: you quit smoking 15 years ago ... she said: I know you probably still smoke American Spirits ... you always did. That's what they said to smoke. I started again. that really happened I actually heard this last spring. There were valid stats that showed it, but not well publicized. |

User ID: 76854615 United States 03/10/2021 06:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I’m a very light smoker 5-10 cigs a day. Been smoking for 40 years same amount except when I was pregnant. I am thin still in great shape on no medication. My last check up all blood work was perfect. Had my lungs X-rayed doctor could not believe I was a smoker? I look like I’m 40 even though I’m 56. I do not drink alcohol at all never. I fast 2 days a week and only have 2 light meals ever other day. Been doing this my whole life. I have a lot of siblings that are on lots of medicine have so many health issues yet lecture me about smoking. I can run circles around them. So tell me why if smoking is soooo bad for you I’m still super healthy and still alive? The people I know who have quit smoking suffer some serious medical issue within 1 year. Why? Sister almost died 2 months after she quit. They gave her tons of meds she was super stressed so she threw all her meds away and started smoking again and now hasn’t had a episode scene? Idk but it sure helps me when I’m stressed beats taking medication. Besides I don’t want to turn into a sheep if I quit. Everyone at my work and household got covid but me. I roll my own cigs. Most people don’t know I smoke. Sad I have to be so secretive about it. J |

Totally crazy. If I go in for something completely unrelated it caused by smoking. Just my observations. Much more but thats as brief as I can be, |

User ID: 78018011 United States 04/16/2021 02:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Early in the concern about covid, there was discussion about what might be useful and tobacco use was one of the possibilities to lessen the effect of covid or perhaps even prevent having it. Quoting: Pooka That discussion soon disappeared - no doubt because smoking is such a terrible thing yada yada. Perhaps people would start smoking to avoid covid yada yada. I clearly remember it coming up because I am a tobacco smoker. smoking CLEARLY, REPEATEDLY AND BY ALL MEASURES APPLIED prevents Parkinson's Disease don't say it's the nicotine, use gum or a patch. the active ingredient is not known. if you smoke, you have a much lower chance of developing PD. The more you smoke, the smaller your chance of developing PD. this has been known for many decades and has been shown to be true in many different countries and populations. there it is. If you have it in your family, smoke. I am not kidding. What if you are already in the early to mid stages of PD? Would smoking help? I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.

User ID: 77086501 United States 04/16/2021 03:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | that's why spliffs are the only way to go... little american spirit, mix some bud in the front part, and use the butt end as a filter of just tobacco, or a paper crutch is nice if you aren't lazy. I have been doing that for twenty years. Strictly RYO with a little weed front loaded. Even when I had pneumonia a few years ago the doctors were amazed at my lung capacity. My friend called those cigarettes Euros. I don't like filter cigs. nameruse username nearmuse |

I smoked Camel before I switched over and they stunk bad. I bought them for a car trip cross country a few years ago and yuck. The stink comes from all the crap in the filters. I dumped the ashtray every time we stopped. BTW when I went from Camels to RYO American Spirit I had two weeks of withdrawals. Something else in those. They taste sweet. I only smoke one package of AS a week, but with Camels I did a pack a day. nameruse username nearmuse |

It might explain why this sudden drop in cases ... everyone who would get it did ... the rest ... their lungs are inhospitable ...? I'm a smoker and read about this a few months ago.

When the dude goes back to his own timeline they are all smoking like crazy fucks. You should see the ashtrays. Now, bear with me, what is the film/series 12 monkeys all about? A VIRUS that wiped out most of humantiy. Obviously this little pretend virus is just a data miner to see how people react and how much control they can get over the human spirit. The one thing I do know though, is that our forefathers/mothers have been warning us from the past subconciously. Subconscious, is amazing. its the very essence of us and it is subjugated by "something" but it warns us where it can. Sometimes it can only do this via certain mediums like TV programmes films etc.... You see schizophrenics seeing messages in things. You see everyday people seeing images in things like clouds etc.... dont discard them right away. Wait and research, the messages are there.... And yes...... smokers will be more UNLIKELY to catch covid. Some of these nasty parasites ( not virus ) do not like the chemicals or nicotine. The subconcious is our very own MUSE, our phantom of the opera..... it may be ugly but its trying to HELP. When I was a kid, all the adults and teenagers smoked all the time, and you could smoke anywhere. And hardly anyone was ever really sick, or overweight or depressed. Now, hardly anyone smokes, and lots of people are sick, overweight or depressed (or a combination). Just a thought. |

User ID: 79167926 United States 04/21/2021 09:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Nicotine turns into niacin, niacin cures Covid. Such a simple remedy. If you don't want to start smoking, just take niacin. The flushing kind. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80046932 Nicotine does not turn into niacin. It actually displaces niacin and is one reason that (in my opinion) smokers have a higher incidence of schizophrenia. Well established researches have identified that over 90% of schizophrenics self-sooth with cigarettes because it improves their cognative function. What it really does (in my opinion) is create a temporary stimulation followed by a troff of impoverished thinking (just like many other drugs). Not everyone who smokes gets schizophrenia but over 90% of schizophrenics smoke. Think about that for a little bit. |
