Smoking remains the leading cause

Do you know smoke remains the leading cause of preventable death?  Tobacco has a severe effect on the health of users. Tobacco use continues as the leading preventable cause of illness and loss of life in the United States, attributing to more than 480,000 deaths each year.

Still, various tobacco products present unpredictable health risk levels to the users. Flammable products that burn tobacco, such as cigarettes, are the most damaging to a user’s health, although non-combustible products, for example, e-cigarettes, may be less harmful. However, no tobacco product is considered safe.

Smoking can escalate your chance of getting the COVID-19 symptoms and aggravate a patient’s condition of COVID-19. Nicotine upregulates the expression of ACE2, which can also increase susceptibility to COVID-19, aggravating the disease.
