If you smoke, you generally have an increased risk of contracting respiratory infection and of more severe symptoms once infected. COVID-19 symptoms may, therefore, be more severe if you smoke. This means that stopping smoking will bring immediate benefits to your health, including if you have an existing smoking-related disease.
