Help! How do you avoid second-hand smoke in the city?

Hi everyone, Phyllis here. I've been trying to get healthier lately and one thing that really bothers me is all the second-hand cigarette smoke I encounter when walking around the city. It seems like every block there's someone smoking and I can't avoid breathing it in. I know the health risks may be small from brief exposure, but I'm still concerned, especially since my mom had breast cancer and there's a history of smoking-related cancers in my family. I've tried a few things to reduce my exposure: - Crossing the street to avoid smokers when I can - Holding my breath when passing by someone smoking - Wearing a KF94 mask in high-traffic areas - Quickly moving away if someone lights up near me Does anyone have other tips for avoiding second-hand smoke in an urban environment? I'd love to hear what's worked for others. I've even daydreamed about moving somewhere with stricter smoking laws, but that's not really practical. Looking forward to your suggestions!
