Keep your home and car smoke-free
A shared room or car makes smoke someone else's exposure too. Start with the spaces where your household spends time.
Ask household members and visitors to smoke outside the home and car.
The global analysis estimated 603,000 deaths attributable to secondhand smoke in 2004.
Why consider it?
This global burden estimate for 2004 combines exposure data with existing risk estimates. It is not a count of lives saved by a household rule and not a current annual total. The action is practical exposure reduction; no quantified effect for an individual family is claimed.
