Please be considerate toward Asthmatic’s in outdoor spaces and especially in queues

The Issue

In the recent difficult times it has been extremely hard to queue outside supermarkets whilst people are smoking. I am Asthmatic and inhaling the smoke which makes me cough.

People react to this in a manner which is understandable but embarrassing for me. I have had people commenting if  I have coronavirus and I shouldn’t be out and about to infect them. I have suffered asthma attacks and don’t appreciate my children inhaling the smoke either.

This is important to me as I am not the only sufferer. I want to make this request for everyone that is effected. Please help. 

I understand that people may need to smoke as we could be waiting for long periods. I am requesting that people are considerate for one another. 

It would be highly appreciated by thousands if not millions of sufferers and none sufferers alike. Businesses should make it a rule not to be able to smoke in queues. 

Lets make this happen together. A little bit of consideration for fellow humans can go a long way.
