Study: Air Worse In Smoky Bars Than On Truck-Choked Roads
Indoor Air Pollution Virtually Disappears When Smoking Banned

TRENTON, N.J. -- If you're wondering whether a smoky bar or a city
street filled with diesel truck fumes is more harmful to your health,
you might want to skip your next happy hour.

Smoky bars and casinos have up to 50 times more cancer-causing particles
in the air than highways and city streets clogged with diesel trucks at
rush hour, according to a new study.

The study shows indoor air pollution virtually disappears when smoking
is banned.

It was published in the September issue of the Journal of Occupational
and Environmental Medicine.

The study was partly funded by the nation's largest health care
philanthropy, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, of Plainsboro.
