News 14 Carolina | 24 Hour Local News | HEALTH | Second-hand smoke may or may not lead to SIDS

Unbelieveable! I can not even imagine being forced to chnage the wording on a paper, and then quietly doing it!

Best advice, DO NOT SMOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

News 14 Carolina | 24 Hour Local News | HEALTH | Second-hand smoke may or may not lead to SIDS: "One question research has answered is that secondhand smoke increases a baby's risk for SIDS. But a recent review found no link between the two. That finding raised the suspicion of Stanton Glantz, Director of the Center of Tobacco Control. He says tobacco giant Philip Morris paid for the study, and author Frank Sullivan changed the wording of the final draft.

'We found the original draft of the scientific paper, which said, 'secondhand smoke increases the risk of sudden infant death,' in Phillip Morris's corporate files along with their suggestions to Sullivan to change it,' says Dr. Glantz."
