Coronavirus Weed smoke increases the risk of complications

Smoke hashish, even on occasion, can increase your risk of suffering from new coronary complications. The new virus is a respiratory disease that can cause from mild disease to pneumonia and organ failure.

Doctors say that cannabis brings inflammation to the lungs, which affects the body's ability to fight the virus, reports the Daily Mail.

“What happens in respiratory ways when smoking hashish is that it causes an inflammation rate, very similar to the tank, very similar to what cigarettes do,” said the renowned doctor, Albert Rizzo, for CNN.

In addition, doctors say that the use of cannabis makes it more difficult to diagnose the Coronavirus. That's because both cause dry coughs.

Weed smoke causes lung damage. This is a problem in the U.S., where the number of users has increased significantly. 43 million Americans say they used hashish.
