600,000 People die a year from........

If you read the article carefully, you will see that the 600,000 number is a scientific estimate. It's NOT based on any REAL number, and can't be proven. IMO, just another way for the various money-grabbers to scare everyone into doing what they want. Just like the smoking bans based on "second-hand" smoke are ALL base on one, single study from the past, that has never been proven as true in any subsequent studies!! It's ALL based on what some PAID scientist said, and I have NO respect for scientist these days. Too much that is called scientific fact is simply a scientist who is paid to achieve a stated conclusion!!!!
