Too many "promising" studies like cannabis, vitamin D, chloroquine, ivermectin, etc have been later fact-checked by the CDC as bad science, to rely on anything but the CDC's word (or Fauci).

Edit: Thanks jinto36 -- I was wrong on JNP -- ACS is actually a co-publisher. More to the point -- the dose always seems to be the issue -- no affect until you're past 10 micrograms/mL ( https://pubs.acs.org/na101/home/literatum/publisher/achs/jou... ) but that's hundreds of times higher concentration than almost any available method of consuming CBD ( https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphar.2018.0136... )…
