Thus, the suction side smoke (passive smokers) have a higher risk to suffer health problems from smoking. Passive smokers are those who do not smoke, but smokers became victims of smoke inhalation as part side (in addition to the main smoke exhaled by a smoker behind).
Therefore, it is understandable why the incidence of diseases caused by smoking is higher in passive smokers than active smokers. And for children under age, there is a risk of sudden death due to exposure to cigarette smoke.
