The miasma exuding from smokers is lethal! Shun them like the plague!

“Nonsmoking” doesn’t necessarily mean smoke-free.

A new experiment monitoring airborne contaminants inside a nonsmoking theater indicates that hazardous cigarette fumes wafting off moviegoers can degrade air quality. Those pollutants include the carcinogen benzene (SN: 4/26/13) and toxic aldehydes, such as acrolein, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde (SN: 7/27/16).

Such thirdhand smoke, released from tobacco residue on people’s skin, hair and clothing, is an important public health concern, researchers report online March 4 in Science Advances. But it’s not yet clear whether the exposure levels seen in this experiment are enough to cause serious health problems, or how much people can protect themselves from thirdhand smoke in public (SN: 11/10/14).
