Shisha bar and having a joint
Dear expert team, many of my friends visit shisha bars. Would smoking with them be harmful for me? It is only water steam and only few tobacco. This is certainly not so dangerous as cigarette smoking? Having a joint , for example, should also relax the airways. Is having a joint better than smoking shisha? Thank you.

Backpack holiday
I am leaving to Norway by car this summer and I am planning to make a multi-day trip with backpack. What is the best way to sterilize my aerosol ? I have heard of javeltablets but then I have to find a source of fresh water each time. Also, I wonder how to keep pulmozyme permanently below 8 degrees celcius, because that also seems to be difficult to reach through a cooling bag.
