COVID-19 and Smoking - what you need to know:

If you smoke, now is the time to quit to help you stay healthy and out of hospital. For further information, see the coronavirus (COVID-19) advice for smokers and vapers from Public Health England.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a respiratory infection, which can cause life threatening complications affecting the heart as well as the lungs. Smoking damages your heart and lungs, which can put you at a greater risk of developing severe disease from COVID-19.
