Dr. Filippo Ferrigni, medical director of St. Joseph Health Center in St. Charles, made this false statement to the St. Charles City Council.
“If you’re a nonsmoking waitress working in a restaurant that allows smoking, you are essentially smoking the equivalent of 20 cigarettes throughout an eight-hour workday.”

He should either produce research to support such an absurd claim or retract his statement. Even Martin Pion of Missouri GASP admits such a claim is bogus and that health professionals should know better.
