That's why I said "some evidence" not that it was proven.
And there is always a point in arguing degrees and variable because both matter greatly in science. But, not so much when you have an agenda.
And what is not "creditable" (That word, I do not think it means what you think it means) about the article? I get that the study it cites to isn't peer reviewed, but most COVID stuff is not peer reviewed at this point because it is so new. All the article says is that it "might" block COVID.
Anyway, I didn't say it is conclusive, but it does show that not only is there no evidence that it hurts your response to COVID when smoke marijuana, but that it may actually help. Obviously it is far too early to conclude that it does in fact help, but it's also far to early to make a credible claim that it hurts.
Finally, all the article from the American Lung Association means is that breathing in any smoke is not good for you lungs. That is, of course, true but it doesn't really mean much in terms of risk assessment and weighing relative risks. I mean, you inhale smoke when you use a smoker or sit by a fire, but that doesn't mean you should stop using a smoker or sitting by a fire. What it means is that you should limit how much smoke you inhale from those sources. The same is true of marijuana. Obviously edibles are preferable from a safety point of view, but limited amounts of smoking is likely not a big deal.
