‘Smokers and passive: smokers equally at risk’

20080630_e03.jpgSmokers and passive smokers have an equal chance of contracting fatal diseases caused by smoking, claimed Pakistan Medical Society (PMS) President Dr Masood Sheikh.

He told Daily Times on Sunday that, “There is no difference between smoking and passive smoking. A smoker is at risk. However, a non-smoker who inhales the smoke exhaled by a smoker is at equal risk. This poses a serious issue.”
