Vaping and Second-Hand Vaping
Since smoking tobacco cause second-hand smoke, which can be harmful to people. Does vaping also produce the same effect? But the difference between these two is that smoking tobacco has proven to kill. In this article from www.scientificamerican.com they talk about vaping and second-hand vaping:
Per the Centers for Disease Control, smoking “is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States, accounting for more than 480,000 deaths, or one of every five deaths, each year.”
Add to that the more than 16 million Americans who suffer from a smoking-related disease, and it’s fairly clear anything that lowers the rate of cigarette smoking is going to improve our overall health.
The numbers are somewhat encouraging. While more than 40 percent of Americans smoked in 1965, only about 18 percent did in 2012. However, given that our population grew over that time, the net drop in American smokers —1965’s 50 million smokers versus 2012’s 42 million—is only 8 million. Read full post here..
