Last week, reports emerged about the connection between COVID-19 and cannabis. Some outlets claim smoking marijuana could increase the risk for more severe issues from coronavirus.
“What happens to your airways when you smoke cannabis is that it causes some degree of inflammation, very similar to bronchitis, very similar to the type of inflammation that cigarette smoking can cause,” said pulmonologist Dr. Albert Rizzo, chief medical officer for the American Lung Association. “Now you have some airway inflammation and you get an infection on top of it. So, yes, your chance of getting more complications is there.” (CNN)
