I vape weed at night for sleep and have attributed that to my Covid immunity. I call it that because I've had Covid all around me and never had any symptoms nor tested positive. Even after everyone in my home tested positive but with very mild symptoms. Not me. No vaccine for me

Maybe it's because the pot smokers forgot they had the Coof. Amnesia is nine tenths of The Bliss.

Everything kills Covid virus, the problem is the delivery mechanism to target the virus once it's in your body.
One thing I find odd, is that chronic cigarette smokers have never been singled out as the most susceptible to Covid-19.
You would think they would rate up there higher than Obese and Diabetics, and other well established deadly comorbidities.
Right now while Omincon has infected almost everyone I know, either currently or they just got over it. None of my cigarette smoking friends have got it. And they have been around all of the people who got/has it.

Or the homeless. They live in close quarters, constantly spitting and pissing on each other. The only time I ever saw one put on a mask is when they are going into the liquor store. And yet they are not dropping on the street from the Wuhan.

Duh! I just realized it IS the pot smoke that keeps them from dying.

Rapid test is negative for me. PCR will be negative by design ;) Wife was negative as well. Getting the fuck out of IL for some sunshine.
Duh! I just realized it IS the pot smoke that keeps them from dying.Two cases I know that were rough and had to at least visit the doc around my age were heavy pot smokers. 5-10 times a day smokers. The weekend warriors that got it didn’t really bother them. Rested and laid low.

Report of Objective Clinical Responses of Cancer Patients to Pharmaceutical-grade Synthetic Cannabidiol
Abstract
Background/aim: Cannabinoids are widely used in the management of pain, nausea and cachexia in cancer patients. However, there has been no objective clinical evidence of any anticancer activity yet. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of pharmaceutical-grade synthetic cannabidiol on a range of cancer patients.
Patients and methods: We analysed the data routinely collected, as part of our treatment program, in 119 cancer patients over a four-year period.
Results: Clinical responses were seen in 92% of the 119 cases with solid tumours including a reduction in circulating tumour cells in many cases and in other cases, a reduction in tumour size, as shown by repeat scans. No side-effects of any kind were observed when using pharmaceutical grade synthetic cannabidiol.
Conclusion: Pharmaceutical-grade synthetic cannabidiol is a candidate for treating breast cancer and glioma patients.

Cannabidiol inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication through induction of the host ER stress and innate immune responses
Abstract
The spread of SARS-CoV-2 and ongoing COVID-19 pandemic underscores the need for new treatments. Here we report that cannabidiol (CBD) inhibits infection of SARS-CoV-2 in cells and mice. CBD and its metabolite 7-OH-CBD, but not THC or other congeneric cannabinoids tested, potently block SARS-CoV-2 replication in lung epithelial cells. CBD acts after viral entry, inhibiting viral gene expression and reversing many effects of SARS-CoV-2 on host gene transcription. CBD inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in part by up-regulating the host IRE1α RNase endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response and interferon signaling pathways. In matched groups of human patients from the National COVID Cohort Collaborative, CBD (100 mg/ml oral solution per medical records) had a significant negative association with positive SARS-CoV-2 tests. This study highlights CBD as a potential preventative agent for early-stage SARS-CoV-2 infection and merits future clinical trials.
We caution against use of non-medical formulations including edibles, inhalants or topicals as a preventative or treatment therapy at the present time. (Hey now. We had to add this.)

Does the Cannabis industry lobby have the same war chest money that tobacco and alcohol have yet to deem by dint of advertising and white coat paid lab minions that their products are healthful cure alls?
The two compounds commonly found in hemp — called cannabigerolic acid, or CBGA, and cannabidiolic acid, or CBDA — were identified during a chemical screening effort as having potential to combat coronavirus, researchers from Oregon State University said. In the study, they bound to spike proteins found on the virus and blocked a step the pathogen uses to infect people.
The researchers tested the compounds’ effect against alpha and beta variants of the virus in a laboratory. The study didn’t involve giving the supplements to people or comparing infection rates in those who use the compounds to those who don’t.
Hemp is a source of fiber, food and animal feed, and extracts are commonly added to cosmetics, body lotions, dietary supplements and food.
“These compounds can be taken orally and have a long history of safe use in humans,” said Richard van Breemen, a researcher with Oregon State’s Global Hemp Innovation Center. “They have the potential to prevent as well as treat infection by SARS-CoV-2,” he said in a statement.
