The researcher added that “resistant variants could still arise amid widespread use of cannabinoids but that the combination of vaccination and CBDA/CBGA treatment should make for a much more challenging environment for SARS-CoV-2.”

ICYMI: Minnesota medical cannabis patients will have the option to purchase cannabis infused gummies and chews starting August 2022!!!

ICYMI: Flower is at-risk of not making it through the HHS Conference Committee process due to some Senate GOP opposition. Sign the petition to let the MN Senate GOP know that we must add flower to make med. cannabis affordable for Minnesotans. 👇🏻

[Sensible Minnesota @sensiblemn]

The @mnhealth Office of Medical Cannabis is looking for medical cannabis patients to participate in focus groups to get feedback on our communications and informational approaches. They’re hosting two focus groups at the end of July and one in early August.

@TomLehman1 @mnsrc @mnhouseDFL @SenateDFL @mnhousegop @MDHCommMalcolm @VireoHealth @MinnMed We need to see them drop faster! $300+/mo is unacceptable. @sensichangemn + @MinnMed + @ramp_mn fought hard for raw cannabis - which drops price 50% or more. @mnsrc needs to hear us out on this and move the provision forward.

[Sensible Minnesota @sensiblemn]

Thank you @PatGarofalo and @_RyanWinkler for putting #patientsfirst & passing #sf3560 as amended. Hopefully @paulgazelka & @senatorbenson concur and we can put med. cannabis #patientsfirst! #mnleg

Minnesota is allowing for the registration of temporary, emergency caregivers to serve more than one patient. @sensiblemn is asking for volunteers who are willing to serve as temporary caregivers to help patients who need their medical cannabis delivered. https://t.co/mogBGaYrW9

Though demand for cannabis has recently spiked due to the pandemic, the fate of the country’s ability to supply — and keep prices down — remains unseen. In the meantime, consider a switch to edibles and, at the very least, roll your own joint. Now’s not the time for sharing.”

Now is not the time to share joints, bongs, bowls, pipes, or vape pens, either. Frequently clean your pieces with high percentage isopropyl alcohol, he says, to ensure they’re sterile.
