Ik weet niet hoe hulpeloos jij bent, maar volgens mij kan elke volwassene tegenwoordig tabaksrookvrij door het leven gaan. Als jij vandaag de dag nog blootgesteld wordt aan sigarettenrook dan is dat volledig je eigen keuze geweest. Er is niemand die jou vandaag nog dwingt om onvrijwillig in rokerige ruimtes te verkeren (en terecht, zoals ik al eerder zei). En ik weet ook dat roken ongezond is, maar dat wil echter helemaal niet zeggen dat meeroken ook ongezond is. Welke wetenschapper heeft dat ooit geclaimd dan?

Kies maar.

* The Centers for Disease Control[93]
* The United States Surgeon General[2]
* The U.S. National Cancer Institute[94]
* The United States Environmental Protection Agency[95]
* The California Environmental Protection Agency[3]
* The American Heart Association,[96] American Lung Association,[97] and American Cancer Society[98]
* The American Medical Association[99]
* The American Academy of Pediatrics[100]
* The Australian National Health and Medical Research Council[101]
* The United Kingdom Scientific Committee on Tobacco and Health[102]
* The governments of 168 nations have signed and currently 170 have ratified the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, which states that "Parties recognize that scientific evidence has unequivocally established that exposure to tobacco smoke causes death, disease and disability."[1]
