Smoke Dosimeter

The more I consider about public health in relation to smoking, the more this idea comes to my mind: what if we make a smoke dosimeter in the same way it is made for radiation? We need to know how much people actually spend time in the cigarette smoke and how much they are getting sick with various diseases.

Using smoke dosimeters we can find out what kind of diseases are really smoke related and what kind of diseases can be treated with smoking on the other hand.

Moreover, we can compare health of people with the same smoking hours in case of active smoking and in case of second-hand smoking.

We can study also how harmful the cigarette smoke is to people of various ages, genders, professions, climates, etc…

In fact, we can ask computers to find any possible correlations and just watch the results. The only two things we need to provide are big numbers and correct description of each participant. Some countries or cities may use their entire population for gathering this data. Other places can offer a nice reward. The only thing we need to care for is for people to keep their smoking habits for a period of time.
