I remember hearing about some study or evidence early on that smokers might be less susceptible to catching the virus.

I think they found that early on at least, smokers were not over represented in Covid patients, which they kind of expected, compromised lungs and all. No idea if anyone ever did a proper follow up.

It's just a fun bit of meme warfare misinformation. Now go buy those smokes, I'm heavily invested in tobacco.

Here is the Elon Musk tweet also featured in the Cuomo image. It is from January 28 at 12:39 PT. The Cuomo is time stamped 6:46PM PT, so that is probably the 28th, maybe the 29th. But certainly no earlier than 6:46 PM PT on the 28th. Burt posted his meme at....10:45AM PT on the....28th! Definitely before the Cuomo show. You are safe, Burt

I said “pretty sure” but I also never trust the rm time stamp. Let’s get a special counsel on this, Burt should have to testify about his collusion with CNN on the use of this meme.
