In Phase II, participants were asked to quickly
but accurately give their impressions of a series of
four smoking images (i.e., a close-up picture of a
burning cigarette in an ashtray, a distant picture of
a cigarette in an ashtray, an extreme close-up of a lit
cigarette showing smoke and burning-red tobacco,
and a picture of a lit cigarette in a smoker’s hand)
and four smoking-related words (i.e., nicotine,
tobacco, cigarette, and smoking). (...) Participants were
considered possibly vulnerable if they had ever
smoked a cigarette; if they had ever tried or
experimented with cigarette smoking, even a few
puffs; or if they answered yes to the question ‘‘Do
you think that you will try a cigarette soon?’’

On the biochemical side, one study examines how cigarettes smoke exposure affects SARS-COV-2 airway cell infection; another supports previous studies that show ACE2 as the entry point for SARS- CoV-2; and three studies, finding that cigarette smoke downregulates ACE2, add to the continuing debate about how tobacco smoke interacts with COVID-19.
(...) Finally, three new studies support previous findings that cigarette smoke downregulates ACE2. Wang et al found decreased levels of ACE2 among smokers [7]; Tomchaney et al [8] also reported decreased levels when exposing mice to cigarette smoke; and Caruso et al saw downregulation after exposing bronchial epithelial cells to cigarette smoke [9].

Conclusions: Graphic cigarette warning labels serve as an effective population based smoking cessation intervention. (...) Adult smokers were defined as individuals 18 years of age or older who had smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and smoked at least one cigarette per day at the time of the survey. (...) What this paper adds
Previous research indicates that cigarette warning labels are an effective means of communicating the health risks of smoking; however, there is a lack of research that examines the effect of cigarette warning labels on smoking behaviour.
