And some 25yr olds literally choke to death from the fluid in their lungs.Its hitting some areas much harder, and killing more young.Theories are weather, more potent mutated strain and genetic differences in races.Apparently it binds to ace2 receptors which have high amounts in the heart, lungs and testicles.Ace2 receptors vary in different races across the globe.
The variance by race is minimal if none at all. But it looks like smoking might cause a significant increase, so places like China where two thirds of men are smokers will suffer the most.
If tobacco is the issue and not just smoking it then it's not looking too good for shisha users. Might actually be worse for them. Middle east is screwed
I haven't checked if people who quit smoking still have increased levels, but if that's the case then there are large numbers of people who are over 50 and quit who will be facing a double whammy.
