When you get over your cold, try vaping more. I know that most vapers will argue this, but I have not had a cold or any other respiratory ailment since I started vaping 14 months ago (even though my wife has had several bouts with colds and flu and I sit in the Doc's waiting room with her surrounded by coughing and hacking patients). I very seldom put the PV down (to my wife's dismay). I see no way that a respiratory virus could survive (much less multiply) in that environment.

I'm just getting over being sick and vaped my way through it. The worst part for me was throat and sinus irritation due to the drying effects of vaping. I just used those breezers from halls and it helped. I admit that I did have a few analogs to help get through it.

There have been threads about this in the past but I overlooked them, partly because I haven't had a cold since vaping over a year ago...until now! I just got the worst cold in recent memory. I'm finally feeling better after day 5/6 and even missed turkey day due to it...

I vaped my usual Dunhill although menthol would've probably been nice to ease the inhale some. I do have it and thought of adding it...

Another thought--like a tootbrush, it's probably good to clean your carts/cartos, mouthpieces really good or toss after the cold passes.

Would Vodka kill the cold germs?

Like Turbo, I had a bad cold this week (still getting over it - the lingering cough is brutal.) It's my third since June, and my second since I quit analogs completely. Before this, I only tended to get sick at the start of vacations (I spent 7 out of the last 10 Christmases really sick with nasty colds). I even ended up at the doctor's - my chest hurt so much from coughing, I started to wonder if I had pneumonia or something. Through it all, I continued to vape, just as I always smoked through colds. I just took smaller drags and, about half the time, didn't even inhale. I just vaped like smoking a pipe or cigar. Took care of the physical habit, and it didn't seem to do me any harm.

You can't get yourself sick again with the same cold.
