Friends let’s look at the HEALTH EFFECTS OF SECONDHAND SMOKE
EXPOSURE TO SECONDHAND SMOKE occurs when people who DO NOT smoke breathe in smoke that have been breathed out by people who smoke or from burning tobacco products like cigarettes, cigar, pipes or hookahs
NOTE THAT THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF SECONDHAND SMOKE ON PEOPLE WHO DO NOT SMOKE ARE THE SAME AS THE HEALTH EFFECTS SMOKERS EXPERIENCE FROM SMOKING, (kindly refer to discussion on health effects of smoking on 21/11/2022), EVEN THOUGH IN SECONDHAND SMOKE THE PERSON IS NOT SMOKING DIRECTLY
People are usually exposed to secondhand smoke in Bars, Restaurants, Casinos, Vehicles, Work places or even Homes
TO PREVENT THE HEALTH EFFECTS OF SECONDHAND SMOKE, COUNTRIES, COMMUNITIES, EMPLOYERS AS WELL AS FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS MUST ADOPT AND ENFORCE SMOKEFREE LAWS AND POLICIES IN PUBLIC PLACES, WORK ENVIRONMENT AND EVEN IN OUR HOMES
Individuals and families can also decide to stay away from places where people smoke, as well as not allowing people to smoke in and around their homes in order to prevent the health effects of secondhand smoke.
