@FDATobacco's menthol cigarette ban will have greater benefits among those currently most harmed by menthols: young people, women, & racial minorities, esp Black Americans. New article by Chung-Hall, Craig, @cnkyriakos, @gfong570 https://t.co/4ACDpMuaCv
Our findings were based on the evaluation of Canada’s menthol cigarette ban, which led a 7.3% greater quit rate among those who smoke menthols, compared to those who smoke non-menthols (a great comparison group). https://t.co/3b8ANl0KNE
@FDA’s menthol cigarette ban would lead 1.3 MILLION adults who smoke to quit, including nearly 200,000 African Americans who smoke daily. @Washingtonpost’s Editorial board cited our study: https://t.co/v91c4V4ZAJ
This new paper from @AlexCLiber and colleagues examined country differences and trends in noticing vaping campaigns among youth. From 2018-2020, increasing numbers of youth in the US and Canada reported noticing vaping campaigns. @RTI_Intl@ITCProject https://t.co/NImqQ92nCI
New year, new paper 🚨 Noticing #vaping campaigns/messages increased among @ITCProject youth from 2018 to 2022. Increases were most pronounced in the US, followed by Canada, then England, and most youth perceived campaigns to negatively portray vaping. https://t.co/tVJ5Orv3m6
Individuals & orgs around the world are still calling on NZ Govt to stop the repeal of smokefree laws. A new ITC report shows strong support for the Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 goal & its key policies among adults who recently quit smoking - read more at https://t.co/3D7Wo7NzmZ
139 health, human rights etc organisations in 53 countries call on NZ Govt to stop repeal of smokefree laws. "Repealing ... will have only one winner – the tobacco industry – & will firmly establish an ethos of putting corporate profit over public health."

The new coalition govt in #Aotearoa#NewZealand plans to repeal the smokefree law, including reducing nicotine in cigarettes to make them non-addictive. HUGE projected declines in smoking in NZ will be forsaken (https://t.co/1bl7AtQWst) so that the govt can cut taxes (seriously!)
The new NZ coalition govt plans to repeal the long-planned and highly endorsed Smokefree Plan, which includes limiting nicotine in cigs to make them non-addictive.
Guess who would benefit from repeal.
