Tobacco use causes a tremendous amount of morbidity and mortality globally, with a
staggering level of financial costs. In many countries, public health interventions have been
able to reduce the prevalence of smoking and the associated burden. However, despite
these successes, there is still much work left to be done. This commentary argues that the
tobacco control interventions recommended by the World Health Organization are
necessary but not sufficient to adequately address the consequences of tobacco use.
Abstract
Tobacco use causes a tremendous amount of morbidity and mortality globally, with a staggering level of financial costs. In many countries, public health interventions have been able to reduce the prevalence of smoking and the associated burden. However, despite these successes, there is still much work left to be done. This commentary argues that the tobacco control interventions recommended by the World Health Organization are necessary but not sufficient to adequately address the consequences of tobacco use.
