Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your health, and the health of those around you. And in these strange times, we all want to be a little bit healthier. COVID-19 is a respiratory infection that affects the airways and lungs - and if you smoke cigarettes, you may have an increased risk of severe symptoms if you are infected.
