Regarding second hand smoking

2022-01-14 10:35:47
My friends do cigrate smoking everytime when i meet them, i am the only one who is opposed to have a cigrate smoke. Due to this corona situation. I wear one surgical mask first, and a N95 mask above the surgical mask. Double masking. Can the smoke of cigrate can get into the lungs if i have weared the double masking. Does it effects the lungs??. This is the first time i met them inside a house where we barely maintained 1 metre distance. But i wored double masking. I feel the smell of the cigrate smoking, but i don't know whether it will effects my lungs. Please guide me

Yes, it can. Omicrocron varient only needs 10 seconds of exposure without mask to transmit. So, follow COVID appropriate behavior and donot open mask.

With mask it won't, other wise second hand smoke is equally dangerous to lungs as smoking cigarettes
