my wife has has a few asthma attacks here in Shanghai, something that did not happen anymore back in the states. We attempt to patronise non-spmoking venues as much as possible and are looking into an air filter for home, but outside, its just the way it is... good luck.

Thanks.
I would love to find a list of something of non smoking venues?

Non smoking sections.. I have to laugh.. it is so 1980's!! ermm...

I actually already own an air filter and waiting to pick it up once stupid customs clears our parcels.

I haven't had any attacks per se, just finding my lung capacity not that great and getting very tired and puffed quickly after only a short walk and have to walk very very slowly when outside and wear a face mask etc.
