Is Second Hand Smoke Bad?

What’s So Bad About Second-hand Tobacco Smoke?

Most people know that second-hand smoke is bad, but why is it bad?  And besides avoiding smoking altogether, what can be done about it? Before looking at the harmful effects, it’s good to consider one solution. Electronic cigarettes are increasing in popularity because they offer an alternative to tobacco smokers. They produce no smoke at all, only water vapor. Electronic cigarette safety has been shown to be much higher than tobacco cigarettes primarily because they produce no toxic smoke. That means the user and everyone around him can avoid the known carcinogens responsible for 3,400 lung cancer deaths and 46,000 heart disease deaths in adult non-smokers in the United States. Those shocking statistics do not include children at all. So, the effects of second-hand smoke are causing great harm to more than 50,000 people annually in the United States alone. Switching to an electronic cigarette can improve the quality of life for a smoker and everyone around him because absolutely no second-hand smoke is created in the process of vaporizing electronic cigarette liquid, inhaling it or expelling it. Avoiding second-hand tobacco smoke is easier with the use of electronic cigarettes.
