A member asked:
Will cigarette odor on clothes affect an asthmatic child?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Allergens from cigarette smoke will soak into clothing, thus affecting children and adults who have asthma. This is why smoking outside is of little benefit unless you change your clothes and shower after every cigarette.
