According to CDC, Since 1964, approximately 2,500,000 NON-Smokers have died from health problems caused by exposure to secondhand smoke. Such health problems include, Cancer,of the lungs, bile duct, pancreas, kidneys and many more organs. Other diseases include heart diseases and lower respiratory tract infections.
