I Have A Cold. WTH?

I thought that wasn't supposed to happen to vapers. I think this is my first cold in 3+ years.

Anyone can get a cold you don't have to be a vaper or smoker to get one. My kid's don't vape nor smoke and they get colds. So being a vaper doesn't prevent colds. Wish it did though

The more PG the better when it comes to the antimicrobial properties of eliquid. I've had only a couple colds in the 8+years I've been vaping versus getting a few every year when I was smoking. I've wondered for some time if the move to mostly or all VG liquids has reduced this benefit but haven't read anything that confirms it.

Here's a brief discussion on the Mt Baker Vapor website - Propylene Glycol - Germs Worst Nightmare? - Mt Baker Vapor

I'm sure vaping or not you can still get colds. But I haven't had one since I started vaping which is about 4 years. I used to get 4 or 5 a year while smoking. But the smoking may have been weakening the immune system.

There might be some truth to the vaping and not getting sick as much thing....theres no doubt I get sick less since vaping. Perhaps it's not really vaping, but just the fact that I'm not smoking anymore. The sick part wasnt so bad, it was the 2 weeks after that which got me. After my cold went away, my chest congestion was aweful, couldnt breath and was constantly hacking flem...all that has completely gone

Since vaping, I've had to weather more hurricanes than colds .

I thought I had a cold the last couple of days until I checked the pollen count in my area. The rating was high. So I’m taking allergy meds but boy I’m so congested and feel like crap.

Who gats allergies in August ?

Hope you feel better soon!!

When was the last time you Bought a Mod or a New Atomizer?

Vaping over nine years, not had a single proper cold. Coincidence? I think not.
