Question-of-the-week
Do you smoke cigarettes?
We've been thinking about cigarette smoking this past month because we just built a web application showing the prevalence of smoke-free casinos in the United States for the American Nonsmokers' Rights Foundation. In the wake of the coronavirus pandemic there has been a surge in the number of gaming facilities in the U.S. that are now smoke-free. At the moment, it stands at about 36%. For this week's poll, we ask if you are a current or past cigarette (or tobacco) smoker, and how much you smoke. View poll
