In a health class you attend a presentation on the dangers of cigarette smoking. Afterwards a friend who smokes says that the anti-smoking forces simply exaggerate smoking's bad effects. What if your?

Nice statement. I don't see a question I can answer or how I can rewrite the statement to form a question.


For what reasons is it likely that an antismoking advertisement produced by a cigarette company would be less blatant and shocking than one produced by a government agency?

A cigarette company's agenda also includes profiting from the sale of cigarettes.


What should you believe when you attend a presentation on the dangers of cigarette smoking and afterwards a friend who smokes said that the anti smoking forces simply exaggerate smoking's bad effects?

You should analyze the sources of the information (health class, friend who smokes) and do your own research. While the health class is considered a more reliable source than someone who smokes, verifying the information will help you to understand the issue. Look for information from a variety of sources, but keep in mind that not all sources are reliable. You have to sort out what can and cannot be trusted. Also, keep in mind what is known about smoking. For one thing, it is known that cigarettes contain a number of additives, some of which are known carcinogens. So, even if your friend is right, cigarette smoking is hazardous for your health just on that point.


Can you get aids from sharing a cigarette with an infected person?

The only way to spread HIV/AIDS is by transferring blood from one person to another. And various tests have proven that HIV/AIDS cannot be spread through saliva. So the only way this is possible is if the smoker was bleeding, and there was blood on the cigarette afterwards, and the person who then took the cigarette was also bleeding.are you sureAssuming saliva only on the cigarette, it is not possible to transmit HIV via cigarette sharing.You will not catch HIV from smoking cigarettes or marijuana.No. Not even kissing will result in infectionYes, if the person smoking the cigarette has HIV. However, there would not be enough of the virus from the saliva in the cigarette butt to pass on an infection.no hiv virus cannot be present in a cigarette as saliva doesn't carry hiv virus.
