The ongoing decrease in gezegde

The ongoing decrease in the number of people smoking in California is a major public health achievement. With California adults smoking 25 percent less than the rest of the nation, our state continues to benefit from lower rates of tobacco-related illnesses.

Dr. Mark Horton

This initiative will save lives, by raising the tobacco tax and funding urgently needed community emergency and related health care services. This is the broadest coalition that's ever come together to reduce smoking, the number one cause of death in California.

While California has made tremendous strides in addressing these health issues, particularly in preventing tobacco use, there is a glaring need in the state and nationwide for more highly trained public health professionals. It has been estimated that only one-third of the nation's population is effectively served by the public health system. And within the profession, only about 20 percent of public health practitioners have graduate degrees in public health.

Taxing tobacco products according to relative risks is a rational tax policy and may well serve the public health goal of reducing smoking-related mortality and morbidity and lowering health care costs associated with tobacco-related disease,

The Master Settlement Agreement placed significant restrictions on the advertising and marketing practices of the tobacco companies, and also provided funding for an effective anti-smoking public education campaign targeted directly at youth. These new numbers conclusively demonstrate that the combination of these two factors -- together with the hard work of the Attorneys General and the public health community -- has resulted in major reduction in smoking rates since the MSA was signed.

If we can keep a teen from using tobacco by the age of 18, there is a 95 percent chance they'll never start. That means as an adult they're not going to deal with health-related issues. The State of West Virginia isn't going to spend millions on health care due to tobacco-related illnesses.

We know from strong evidence that we'll see a decrease in the youth smoking rate, a decrease in health-care costs associated with smoking, and revenue we'd like to see go towards prevention and education programs.

This is wonderful news, and an important measure of progress toward reducing overall smoking rates in the state. Every teen we are able to prevent from smoking today will become an adult who will very likely remain tobacco-free.

Very early on, I decided I didn't want smoking in the movie. It's not really a movie about smoking, but about lobbying. Tobacco is just the setting. It's not that I believe in the idea that movies should be responsible and not show smoking. But I think if the characters had been smoking, it would have seemed a pro-smoking movie, whereas it's about lobbying and spin and talk.

Ivan Reitman (1946-)

Many people are tempted to lie about their smoking habits when applying for life assurance, but this is a false economy. Should you become ill or die from a smoking related condition, your insurance won't pay out – and then you'll fully understand what smoking has cost you.

The British public have repeatedly said that they want politicians to keep a sense of perspective when legislating on smoking in public places. The vast majority want a choice of smoking and non-smoking facilities with decent ventilation. Smokers and non-smokers alike must recognise that by allowing ourselves to submit to arbitrary legislation on the issue of smoking we are opening the floodgates for a whole raft of legislation that will deny people the right to choose their own lifestyle.

Banning public smoking to reduce the number of people who smoke is low on people's list of priorities. Government should not use legislation to force people to give up smoking.

The Nation remains interested in agreeing to a smoking compact with the county, one that would be satisfactory to both parties and that would be a sufficient basis for the county to issue a smoking waiver with respect to the Nation or any other party following such smoking policies.

Lung cancer in women in this country is really epidemic because women started using tobacco later in the 20th century than men did. We're still seeing the results, ... In California, rates among women dropped almost 5 percent. But in the rest of the country, they went up 13 percent.

It's important to say that there's been a lot of (anti-smoking) activity, and it's by many segments of California society. Health plans have been part of that, and combined it's been pretty darn effective.
