Quotes from this article:

The commercially-available cigarettes that we tested were chock full of bacteria, as we had hypothesized, but we didn't think we'd find so many that are infectious in humans. If these organisms can survive the smoking process -- and we believe they can -- then they could possibly go on to contribute to both infectious and chronic illnesses in both smokers and individuals who are exposed to environmental tobacco smoke.
Lead researcher Amy R. Sapkota, an assistant professor in the University of Maryland's School of Public Health, on the study that will appear in an upcoming edition of the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.
