A quick literature search shows ample evidence of both immune suppressing and immune promoting effects of nicotine.

I didn’t see something that was a clear consensus, but it seemed like nicotine decidedly modulates the immune system. It seems whatever effects it has might do good things for covid.

Nicotine isn’t evil, and even not particularly addictive when not delivered via burning leaves. (components in smoke change how much enters the brain)
