Formula 1 shouldn’t be a vehicle for promoting harmful and addictive tobacco products to kids.
As the sport works to expand its young fanbase, tobacco companies are sponsoring F1 cars and drivers to market nicotine pouches to millions of young people around the world.

Yup.
More evidence on how the industry preys on the most vulnerable-"Boost mode" provided on new e-cig brands: 55.1% of participants had a device with boost mode. Those with boost mode were younger, had lower SES status, vaped more frequently/were more dependent. tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/earl...

1665 - a week in London of causes of dearth. Plague very big that week. Significant number of Griping in the Guts.
Recreational drugs can more than double risk of stroke, study suggests
So good to see George Young still actively supporting action on smoking. One of the real heroes of tobacco control since the 1970s.
Excellent and enjoyable article. Will probably stay with morning dog-walking rather than being carried in a chair around the city by slaves, but will keep an eye on Medicare options.
A player rushed to save a seagull after it was whacked by a soccer ball, performing CPR to revive the bird.
The British government’s claims of anything even approaching adequate communications are sheer nonsense. They should admit that their process has been a shambles, causing completely unnecessary disruption and distress.
Excellent and well-researched article. So important to ensure full disclosure of tobacco industry and related interests.
Should be amazing - but sadly, not surprising.
Absolutely. Complete shambles causing considerable (and totally needless) disruption and distress. I can't recall a worse governmental process and communications failure.
So right. Shambolic process. Rushed implementation, belated then minimal information and no access to adequate information sources. AI responses that don’t answer questions and misinform. Distressing need to change travel plans, bypassing UK days. Bizarre discrimination against people born in UK.
Good comments from Kate Chaney.
Our research shows that although 90% of people in HNY know that smoking causes cancer, awareness of other smoking-related harms like pregnancy complications and dementia is low.
The Tobacco and Vapes Bill is a landmark piece of legislation which will phase out tobacco for the next generation.
A man holds a cigarette packet in his right hand. The packet features a warning of a diseased lung and the words Smoking causes emphysema.
The WA Gov's action on illicit tobacco a welcome step.
We’re pleased the gov heard the collective voices of the tobacco control community.
We hope once it's passed by parliament, the amended legislation will continue WA’s long tradition of being a leader in tobacco control.

Interesting Lancet paper and commentary. Yet another building block in the case for much greater focus on prevention.
Interesting paper highlighting important issues around how prevention campaigns should be developed and run in fast-changing modern media environment.

New SARG research published in @addictionjournal.bsky.social this week led by @damonm1989.bsky.social has found that public health policies which reduce spending on harmful products can actually provide a significant boost to UK jobs and the wider economy. #PublicHealth #HealthEconomics #UKEconomy
“Protecting academic freedom, integrity, and the right to question those in positions of authority and power (including within the academic and health systems in which we work) is not ancillary to public health, but central to its purpose.”

Excellent. Thanks to OUP for making this happen.
Yet in the UK, JTI have been advocating for this policy in opposition to the smokefree generation … shorturl.at/lMpps
Excellent work!
Encouraging news that VicHealth’s future may be secure. When will governments understand that saving lives and healthcare costs comes from spending more, not less on prevention – even if the results don’t all come through before the next election?
