[QUOTE]Originally posted by mikesmith: [QB] CK and Chatter: Follow the links provided at that website. It is explained in great detail. As I stated, WHO has buried the info, due to political considerations (read: $-funding) Especially read the news article about the WHO finding prior to WHO deep-sixing the report. [URL=http://www.junkscience.com/news/euwsjets.htm]http://www.junkscience.com/news/euwsjets.htm[/URL] This is from the WHO press release: [URL=http://www.who.int/inf-pr-1998/en/pr98-29.html]http://www.who.int/inf-pr-1998/en/pr98-29.html[/URL] The study found that there was an estimated 16% increased risk of lung cancer among non-smoking spouses of smokers. For workplace exposure the estimated increase in risk was 17%. However, due to small sample size, neither increased risk was statistically significant. Although, the study points towards a decreasing risk after cessation of exposure. Notice the qualifier "neither increased risk was statistically significant" Believe it... or don't.....
