Public Health

Coinciding with World No Tobacco Day 2018, observed each 31 May, the WHO is warning that tobacco use and exposure to second hand smoke are “major causes” of cardiovascular disease, contributing to three million deaths a year.

  • The lack of awareness about the risks of tobacco use, is most common in low- and middle-income countries.
  • The good news is that these deaths are preventable, and we know what needs to be done – Dr. Douglas Bettcher (WHO)
  • In China, for example, more than six out of 10 people are unaware that smoking can cause a heart attack.
  • In India and Indonesia, meanwhile, more than half of all adults do not know that the habit can lead to a stroke.
  • Calcutta: The owner of any premises that fails to comply with municipal recommendations on mosquito eradication can be fined up to Rs 1 lakh under a new rule that takes effect on Friday, replacing the provision that required civic officials to move court to impose a maximum penalty of Rs 5,000.
