Who faces a high-risk from secondhand smoke?
While secondhand smoke is harmful to everybody, it is even more dangerous to the following high-risk individuals: • Babies and children, whose lungs are still growing and can be easily damaged. • Heart and lung disease patients, who may suffer even more problems because of their condition. • Pregnant women, who have a risk of miscarriage, premature birth and infant death. • Seniors, who often have weaker immune systems.
