Who knew?
After looking at the research done on cannabis and COVID by other scientists, they were able to determine that cannabis, a special strain in particular, could potentially block COVID-19 from entering a person's body to begin with.
It all comes down to our body's ACE2 receptors, which works sort of like doorways into our bodies for the virus. In the case of the Kovalchuck's work, cannabis would be used to decrease the level of ACE2 gene expression, essentially temporarily closing the doors to the virus.
