    I was never vaccinated and got covid three times, three different strains. As a regular user, the duration and intensity of the disease was minimal. THC binds to the same receptor that Covid does. However, the problems of regular cannabis use still apply.

    What’s with the negative bias!?
    Started talking about joints while driving at the start, calling it marijuana constantly etc.
    ‘Testing’ at the end, why not focus on the positive potential cannabis has on diseases, such as potentially preventing cytokine storms or just any positive effects on the Immunomodulation.. instead you’re like "Oh look, see look bacteria, look see, Vaccines.. smoking is BAD!" Maybe you don’t need the fucking vaccine in the first place if you get the immunomodulation right. Stop naysaying you absolute bore

    I think this research is miss guided somewhat. When consuming immunosuppressants regularly maybe the real effect is making your immune system stronger. For example, I go to the gym to exhaust myself and yes I become weaker after the gym but over time my body grows to be stronger. This was not even mentioned as a possibility

    well, it’s an adaptogen. It works with the microbiome. They know what they are doing…

    Cannabis apparently binds the beta melanocyte in a dialysis patient.

    How is possible for just the licencing process takes so long??? How is the FDA letting vaccines be produce and use on the general population??? While takes months to get a license to study the effects of cannabis!!! Don’t make a lot of sense!!!🤣🤣🤣

    I really don’t understand why you don’t want to smoke and drive. Maybe there should be some studies on that.

    As a twenty year sufferer of Ankylosing Spondylitis I know that I personally get much better pain relief with Cannabis than I ever got with a non steroidal anti inflammatory drug or opioid and Cannabis improved my joint mobility instead of making it worse. You can study until the cows come home and I will still choose Cannabis regardless of what you think you have discovered. I can lift my shoulders again. I can walk the dogs a half a mile again. I quit alcohol because I don’t need to numb my senses into unconsciousness to sleep any longer. My neck joints are fused and haven’t moved since 2002 due to inflammation and my shoulders were nearly gone as well. I’m no bastion of health now but I’m still functional and alive. Until forty I drank and smoked Mexican Schwag and ran marathons. In 1999 I got a flu shot that I didn’t need and by 2002 my neck no longer moved. Probably total coincidence but it has always lingered in the back of my mind that the shot was the trigger that sent my immune system into overdrive and Medical grade Cannabis is the only thing that calms it back down. By 2008 I was permanently disabled and in much worse shape than I am today. But I still got both Moderna Co-vid19 vaccines even though I am a staunch anti vaxxer otherwise. For my own body only, of course. I had no side effects from either shot. I am male, white, 68 and too damn skinny now instead of too damned fat. Everything in life is a trade off. To get better I had to stop going to doctors and other rheumatoid specialists because they’re not that special at all, just hacks out to make a buck and I was the lab rat.

    Marijuana for me, at 70 years old, is a miracle drug and the oly medicine I will ever use for my depression, alcoholism and artritis, my only regret is not had have it available for me earlier in my life
