Glad U R concerned: The increased risk from this exposure is immeasurably small and commensurate with risks you take every day driving a motor vehicle, etc. I am VERY glad you are concerned. Only a fool smokes, and hookah is even more dangerous. Just stay away from that stuff. Going to places like that is a waste of time; find something else to do and better people in order to socialize.
