I support the right of people to be able to go wherever they want and not be exposed to smoke, to not have their kids playing atound people smoking, to be able to open their windows on a nice day and not have the smell of smoke coming in the window, and to be able to go for a walk and not feel like you have to walk around people that are smoking.

I'm sure there will be more studies about what is safe. But I don't want to be a participant in the study.

How is this relevant to the article? What you're saying is totally defensible with regards to second hand smoke.

Vapor is not smoke. Full stop.

Furthermore, this very article dispells the misconception that second hand vaping is an issue.

Apologies if you're just merely presenting your views on a related subject, but based on the context, it does seem you're mistakenly equating second hand smoke with second hand vapor.

Does this include the right to not be exposed to car exhaust?

The right not to be exposed to car exaust is just a minor corollary of the right not to have anyone ahead of you on the goddamned freeway.

The car ahead might be an EV. If it isn't, then it's gassing you.

Also, it is disgusting breathing the virus laden air that other people have already had inside their gross lungs already. It's like eating someone's food after they have eaten it already.
