Abstract

In the current scenario, Tobacco smoking have become a common threat to human health. Smoking tobacco affects active and passive smoker’s lungs differently, which will result in respiratory diseases at different stages of life. This pandemic has shown us that respiratory health and Tabaco smoking are intricately connected. In this study, we estimate the potential risk of smoking cigarette in active and passive smokers. In a cohort of 154 active and passive smokers from diverse demographics, we investigated the consequences of tobacco use. In India, between April 2022 and June 2022, we calculated the impact of tobacco use on the active smoking population at 33.6% and the passive smoking population at 66.4%. We discovered a relative relationship between smoking and ARD. According to data analysis, there is a 28.0% incidence of respiratory disease in the community of smokers who are using tobacco actively (p value 0.05).Additionally, Nicotine is potential factor in acquiring acute respiratory disease following Coronavirus diseases (p value <0.05). Cigarette smoking is associated with evidence of mild to severe respiratory illness and intake of nicotine in active smokers that causes acute respiratory diseases.
