Abstract
- This minireview is designed to highlight the effects of COVID-19 infection on smokers and the possibility of exposure to the risk of death. Literature and research have been reviewed from the date of the emergence at the end of 2019 until mid-November 2020 and the results examined. Authors used the keywords and research phrases SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19, smoker and cigarettes. The minireview revealed the existence of three studies which found that COVID-19 infection leads to more severe cases in current and former smokers, however some studies disagreed. One study showed that smoking was linked negatively with the harmful effects of COVID-19. This evidence may encourage smokers to quit smoking. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
