(N/A) Yes,passive smoking is considered highly dangerous.
In passive smoking,the smoke released from the burning end of a cigarette (sidestream smoke) and the smoke exhaled by the active smoker is inhaled by a non-smoker.
It is often considered more dangerous because the active smoker inhales smoke through a filter,whereas the passive smoker inhales the unfiltered,toxic smoke directly from the environment. Furthermore,the concentration of certain harmful chemicals like carbon monoxide and carcinogens is often higher in the sidestream smoke than in the mainstream smoke inhaled by the active smoker.
