The plant disease caused by tobacco mosaic virus is found worldwide.
The virus is known to infect more than 150 types of herbaceous,

Infection by tobacco mosaic virus causes serious losses on several
crops including tomatoes, peppers, and many ornamentals.

Keep tobacco products away from tomatoes, and if you smoke, wash your
hands before gardening.

I am purely speaking from experience, and not from the scientific
illuminati bent. One must realize that on Usenet that information is
free, and as such, worth 100X what is paid for it.

If someone is afraid of tobacco virus, then by all means, go to the
carcinogen group.

TMV doesn't infect people nor is it a carcinogen. The carcinogenic effect
of some uses of tabacco have nothing to do with TMV.
