Can smoking spread coronavirus or is it through droplets?

Coronavirus: Coronavirus is spread through droplets (coughing and sneezing). When you exhale smoke you could theoretically spread the virus but not from the smoke, from the droplets that are exhaled.

COVID 19: I was surprised to learn that SARS-CoV-2 actually can be spread through secondhand smoke. It does make sense. It is primarily spread through droplets. Surface contact tranmission is less frequent.
