    New Jersey alone is 11 infections off 100,000.

    America expected to break the million mark soon.

    Turkey is looking like it is in trouble too.

    Question to those that smoke.
    Do you feel that your smoking habit has changed since the lockdown?

    As I know of, some friends in the UK have cut down and a couple have even quit smoking altogeher.

    Ironically enough they are testing nicotine patches on severely sick in france because the data coming out is that smokers are less likely to be severely effected by the virus. Google it if you dont believe me. 25% of french people smoke, but only 5% of the severely infected are smokers.

    Having said that i think they are clutching at straws. Correlation does not imply causation.

    David Hockney joked that smokers are less likely to be effected.
