## Question

Does anyone out there know of any serious cigar smoker(let's say smokes a cigar 4 or more days a week) who has come down with Covid? There is research that says nicotine users are less likely to get it or at least not as severe(google nicotine covid).Before Covid I smoked 4-5 days a week, since Covid I smoke at least one cigar a day and some days two. I have had 2 employees come down with it, my SO came down with it and I know I was exposed, and my golf club was considered ground zero in my community. Stay safe and enjoy your cigars. I haven't seen any research on rum or scotch but I tend to think that adds to the protection.
