Tobacco Industry Smokescreen Obscured Links Between Second-Hand Smoke and SIDS

The key article, commissioned by Philip Morris and published in a respected pediatric epidemiology journal in 2001, discounts the significance of research showing a link between exposure to secondhand cigarette smoke and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
