These people just won't quit - will they?

I would like one of these lame brains to please explain why the rates of respiratory health problems in children, including asthma, are on a continuous rise at the same time smoking rates and SHS exposure are declining?

Of course they can not explain it.

As always - please ping or FReepmail me if you want on or off this list.

Multiple causation.

sigh.

Actually, the most sensible thing I have ever seen on asthma was a study by Oxford that associated it strongly with childbirth in hospital. Very very interesting.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh! They're at it again, I see.

And you're absolutely correct about the sudden rise of children's respiratory problems, since the smokingnazies began their campaign against the LEGAL use of tobacco products.

I'm older than you are. When I was growing up, the vast majority of adults smoked a pipe, cigars, or cigarettes. From babyhood through college, I knew but one, ONE child who had asthma.
