Yes it is just as bad if not worse.
I am a respiratory therapist and a daughter of 2 smokers.
And well, practicing with the new pulmonary function test machines I found that I have pretty bad lung volumes, as bad as someone who has smoked I also get a yearly pnemonia from it

No. Second hand smoke may be more toxic than what is being smoked, however, smokers are smoking and also breathing in the second hand smoke. This still makes smoking worse.

Absoulely Positively without a doubt.

Yes it is, because when you smoke the cigarettes have filters in them so some of the chemicals get filtered out, but when you get secondhand smoke none of them are filtered out, you you are in hailing all of the chemicals.

Answer 6
