RWJF News Digest: Public HealthThis frequently updated news digest on the subject of Public Health highlights key articles from major news publications. The digest is a free service of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. FDA Sends E-Cigarette Companies a Warning Associated Press, 09/10/2010 The Food and Drug Administration is lighting a fire under the electronic cigarette industry to work with the agency to legally market the devices and is cautioning other companies that their sales and manufacturing practices violate federal law. The FDA said yesterday it sent warning letters to five companies that make e-cigarettes or components for the plastic and metal devices that heat a liquid nicotine solution in a disposable cartridge, creating vapor that the smoker inhales. Food for Thought: Report Details 85 Safety Recalls Philadelphia Daily News, Queen Muse, 09/09/2010 Tainted cheese, lettuce and waffles are among the 56 food recalls that have affected Pennsylvania since stronger food-safety legislation stalled in Congress in July 2009, according to a study released this week. The study, conducted by the Pennsylvania Public Interest Research Group (PennPIRG), the Consumer Federation of America and the Center for Science in the Public Interest, found that 85 recalls occurred in that time period nationwide. Prevent the Senate From Gutting Prevention The Huffington Post, Matthew L. Myers, 09/08/2010 With many Americans struggling in a shaky economy, Congress is understandably working to address the concerns of small businesses as the new health reform law is implemented. But efforts to relieve small business of new paperwork requirements in the law must not jeopardize one of its most critical provisions a fund to prevent serious and costly diseases. Editors Note: This piece was authored by Matthew L. Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. U.S. Smoking Rate Hasn't Changed, CDC Says Los Angeles Times, Thomas H. Maugh II, 09/08/2010 After 40 years of continual declines, the smoking rate in the United States has stabilized for the last five years, with one in every five Americans still lighting up regularly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday. Moreover, more than half of all children are exposed to toxic, secondhand smoke and 98% of those who live with a smoker have measurable levels of toxic chemicals in their blood stream, setting them up for future harm from cancer, heart disease and a variety of other ailments. Pandemic Over, It's a Normal Flu Season: Plenty of Vaccine Should Be Available The Washington Post, Lena H. Sun, 09/07/2010

Page 2Remember the lines last winter for hard-to-find flu shots, the closed schools and the craziness about an H1N1 pandemic? Health officials say all those are things of the past: The pandemic is officially over, there's plenty of vaccine available already, and this year, one shot will deal with most of the different flus expected this winter. 2010 All rights reserved.

"Ryan, Molly" "Hamilton, Joy" 9/14/2010 6:43:47 PM FW: U.S. adults support restrictions on e-cigarettes based on potential risks

Do you get these? Just tell me if you want me to stop sending you random crap ;)

From: GLOBALink HQ [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2010 3:24 PM To: [email protected] Subject: U.S. adults support restrictions on e-cigarettes based on potential risks

Health & Science - 15 September 2010

U.S. adults support restrictions on e-cigarettes based on potential risks - The Medical News September 15, 2010 According to the makers of electronic cigarettes, they are new devices that allow users to inhale nicotine but not the toxins of tobacco cigarettes. Advocates hail e-cigarettes as a possible quit-smoking aid. But e-cigarettes have been criticized by the United States Food and Drug Administration as potentially toxic since they haven't been tested in FDA-recognized scientific trials. Also of concern: there are no age restrictions on sales of these new nicotine-containing products. According to a report released today by the University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children's Hospital National Poll on Children's Health, public concern about e-cigarettes is already quite high. In fact: 91 percent of adults in the U.S. think manufacturers should be required to test e-cigarettes for safety 85 percent favor prohibiting the sale of e-cigarettes to minors 82 percent think that the FDA should regulate e-cigarettes like other nicotine-containing products 68 percent of adults think e-cigarettes should have health warnings like tobacco cigarettes and other nicotine products. "It is clear from this poll that U.S. adults are not waiting for scientific evidence of adverse health effects of e-cigarettes before asking that8_19_2011

they be regulated and restricted," says Matthew M. Davis, M.D., director of the poll and associate professor of pediatrics and internal medicine in the Child Health Evaluatio n and Research Unit at the U-M Medical School. "Rather, they support restrictions on e-cigarettes based on potential risksnot just immediate health effects, but also the possibility that e-cigarettes may lead youth toward later use of tobacco cigarettes." e-Cigarettes are battery-operated devices that look like cigarettes but do not burn tobacco. Instead, e-cigarettes have replaceable cartridges of liquid containing nicotine, which is inhaled as a vapor along with flavors like tobacco and chocolate. e-Cigarettes are available in stores, mall kiosks and over the Internet. This latest information from the poll adds to the mounting public dialogue about e-cigarettes, which has so far consisted of claims and counter-claims by opponents and proponents but minimal scientific data, Davis says. Last week, the FDA sent letters to five manufacturers of e-cigarettes, warning them of violations of federal laws regarding new drugs. The FDA state d that the companies claim that e-cigarettes can help tobacco smokers quit but offer no data recognized by scientific experts. In this latest poll conducted by Davis and his colleagues, 42 percent of adults are very concerned that it's easy for youth under 18 to buy ecigarettes. About half of adults (49 percent) are very concerned that ecigarettes may increase nicotine and tobacco use among children, and 17 percent of parents are very concerned their children will try ecigarettes. "Adults' high level of concernespecially about the chance that ecigarettes will lead to use of nicotine and tobacco by youthlargely explains their broad support for many potential new laws and regulations," says Davis, who is also associate professor of public policy at the U-M Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. According to Davis, this latest poll indicates widespread public support for initiatives that are being considered by som e state and local jurisdictions, including warning labels on e-cigarettes, bans on ecigarette sales to minors, advertising restrictions in youth media and limits on indoor smoking of e-cigarettes. "Given these results," says Davis, "in order to gain more public support, makers of e-cigarettes will need to provide more detailed evidence about safety and make clear their intentions about marketing to youth. Meanwhile, critics of e-cigarettes may want to move now on legislation, while they have strong public backing."

From: To: Date: Subject:Hi Pam,

"Neal, Scott" "Pam Wessel-Estes" 9/15/2010 3:50:20 PM RE: Regional/Lg county policy considerations

Thanks for getting back with me on this. I am running to another BOH Tobacco Policy Committee meeting at 1pm so I'll try to be as detailed as I can. Also of note is that we are trying to keep these details under the radar right now because we don't want any publicity on what we are doing specifically until the time comes to reveal the plan. Essentially we are being purposefully vague around phase 2 so that the media doesn't run with another "nanny state" type of story that could damage our chances of success both locally and also statewide. Phase 2 will be focused on all three of the following issues: 1. Point of sale signage: Policy requiring all tobacco retailers to post a sign that shows a graphic health warning (picture) about tobacco use and also include the Quitline number. Details still need to be worked out about size and placement requirements. 2. Electronic Cigarettes: Policy prohibiting the sale of e-cigs. We would craft language that specifically prohibits the sale of these products, but could leave the door open to some similar "FDA approved" type of product if one ever becomes available and approved by FDA. 3. Flavored Other Tobacco Products: Policy prohibiting (or restricting) the sale of these types of products. This one is much more difficult to craft language around since determining what is "flavored" and what isn't can be difficult. We recognize this policy area may also be potentially preempted by state law or at least in an area that is more gray than black or white on that issue. First thoughts on this may be to focus on the sale from Distributor to Retailer since we do not believe we are preempted (or at least likely aren't) at that level of the supply chain. Again, these will all be more flushed out in the coming weeks/months, but ALL are being moved forward and developed by our BOH Tobacco Policy Committee for a vote in the December 2010 BOH meeting. I'm happy to discuss more details over the phone as to how this might work toward overall statewide legislative strategy too. Thanks again for your support and willingness to see if this is something your county might want to join in on. The more counties moving these policies forward, the better. Unfortunately we are obviously facing a very tight timeline too, which I recognize may be a barrier. Thanks Scott

Hi Scott I have Dr. Goldbaums attention on this and have a meeting scheduled next week to brief him. He wants to know specifically what policies are being considered for phase II and the outcome of the meeting this week. Thanks for sending along updates and the draft documents as they are developed. I will give you a call by Weds if I need additional info prior to meeting with him. Best, ~PPam Wessel-Estes, MAProgram Manager Tobacco Prevention & Control | Chronic Disease Prevention

E-Cigarettes Banned on Domestic Flights Passengers Protected From Toxins, Carcinogens Despite frequent claims by e-cigarette [e-cig] sellers that their product can be used to self administer nicotine on airplanes where smoking is prohibited, all U.S. domestic airlines ban the use of these untested products which the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] has declared are illegal, reports public interest law professor John Banzhaf, Executive Director of Action on Smoking and Health (ASH), who led the campaign to ban their use in flight. http://www.aolnews.com/health/article/despite-ad-claims-you-... E-cigs give off a vapor which is a mixture of nicotine (a deadly and addictive drug which can contribute to fatal heart attacks), propylene glycol (a respiratory irritant used in antifreeze and known to cause respiratory tract infections), and other substances the FDA has labeled "carcinogenic" and "toxic." It appears t hat these same substances are then also exhaled where those around the user -- including the elderly, those with special sensitivities, as well as infants and toddlers -- are also forced to inhale them. Previously the FDA had warned that: e-cigs pose acute health risks which cannot seriously be questioned because they contain toxic chemicals. It also said that: * e-cigarette users suffer from a wide variety of potentially serious symptoms including racing pulse, dizziness, slurred speech, mouth ulcers, heartburn, coughing, diarrhea, and sore throat8_19_2011

* nicotine [one of the two major chemicals used in the product] in high doses can be dangerous and even fatal * the toxic chemical diethylene glycol was found in the e-cigarettes which were tested * various mutagenic, carcinogenic, and genotoxic chemicals were also present in the products * the cartridges con taining the nicotine and other toxic chemicals, many of which come from China, are subject to none of the manufacturing controls required for FDA-approved nicotine-delivery products [like nicotine gum, patches, inhalers, sprays, etc.]. Subsequent to the FDA's warning, independent scientists have warned about additional potential dangers to users of e-cigs: www.newsrx.com/press-releases/11551.html The Air Force, and the Marine base at Quantico, have joined other jurisdictions in banning the use of e-cigarettes [e-cigs] at least in the workplace, citing the potential health dangers to users from toxic chemicals as set forth in a memo by the Air Force Surgeon General. He also noted a concern originally expressed by ASH that these "illegal" devices can also be used to surreptitiously administer drugs other than nicotine. ASH had previously reported ads for e-cigs which administer Cialis and "potent" marijuana. www.cigarettesreviews.com/fda-may-ban-marijuana-ecigarettes As the Surgeon General's memo warned: "Commanders also need to be aware that the cartridges used in these devices are replaceable and could be used to discreetly deliver substances other than nicotine." New Jersey and Suffolk County, NY, have banned the use of e-cigs wherever smoking is prohibiting, and New York as well as several other states are considering similar bans. Many countries have also banned or severely restricted the sale of the product outright, as have several states. Banzhaf, who first forced airlines to provide no-smoking sections, and ultimately to ban smoking entirely, said that the health advantages these bans brought should not be subverted by an untested product which forced persons in the vicinity of the user to inhale nicotine, propylene glycol, and a host of other toxic, mutagenic, and genotoxic substances, and thereby serve as guinea pig s to see how serious the adverse health effects are.

I will reply to the ASH press release here since it was posted here. Quote from PR below: "all U.S. domestic airlines ban the use of these untested products which the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] has declared are illegal" Fact: This statement has no basis in fact. Firstly, the FDA is not a judge, jury or officer of the law and cannot therefore declare a product illegal. A federal judge declared "This case appears to be yet another example of FDA's aggressive efforts to regulate recreational tobacco products as drugs or devices under the FDCA". No one with any authority to do so has declared the product illegal. The FDA has suggested it would like the product regulated as a drug delivery device and a Federal judge stated it does not seem to qualify as such and should be regulated as a smokeless tobacco product. I have personally had contact with customer service at 2 dozen or more airlines in the past 18 months and I have found that a handful have a policy that allows the crew to make the final determination on allowing use and most of the rest have no specific policy on e-cigarettes. I contacted the author of the AOL News article when it was posted and let him know that this and many of his other "facts" were incorrect. He apologized, but made no move to correct the misinformation. I would like to ask how one can call nicotine a deadly and addictive drug and then suggest that smokers use the nicotine patch and gum when those products contain nicotine - "a deadly and addictive drug"? Quote from PR below: "propylene glycol (a respiratory irritant used in antifreeze and known to cause respiratory tract infections)" Fact: Did you know that propylene glycol is used in medication for lung transplant patients because it prevents respiratory infections? (http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089/jam.2007.0626) Quote from PR below: "ASH had previously reported ads for e-cigs which administer Cialis and "potent" marijuana".8_19_2011

Fact: Paper and coca cola cans can deliver marijuana as well, shall we ban them also? List from PR below: "carcinogens", "toxins", "toxic chemicals","mutagenic" or "genotoxic" substances have supposedly been found in e-cigarettes. Fact: To be considered carcinogenic, a product must contain a level of nitrosamines which could ACTUALY cause cancer. Quoted from PR below: "Many countries have also banned or severely restricted the sale of the product outright, as have several states." Fact: Not one single state has banned sale of e-cigarettes to adults in the USA.

Team, Here's the latest draft of the Tobacco Policy priorities. In light of a few calls today, our strategies around preemption and flavored products may be changing. Nicole, I know that you want this to go in the packet for the coalition and the deadline is noon tomorrow. I think that it is really close in terms of content but I want to be really careful about how we talk about these politically sensitive issues. Scott can you give this a look and give Nicole the green light? I think that the section on youth access still needs some work. Unfortunately, Sarah, Anne and I will be out of the office tomorrow. Also -- and maybe more key -- after today's new direction, we don't call out e-cigarettes in here anywhere yet. Do we want to add them now?

Scott-- for you reference, this document has evolved a fair amount. Here is where the youth access piece was earlier today: The tobacco industry knows that young people are more likely to start using tobacco and the majority of people who use tobacco become addicted when they are young. Big tobacco uses strategies like flavored products to get youth to start smoking. Flavored tobacco products have the appeal of candy and mask tobaccos harshness. Like cigarettes, they contain nicotine which is the addictive component of tobacco.. To prevent youth from starting to use tobacco products we plan to: * Restrict the sale of flavored tobacco products that lure youth into becoming addicted * Decrease access to tobacco products near places where youth like schools and parks * Increase knowledge of dangers of tobacco by requiring health messages at point of sale

Thanks, Joy

Team, Here's the latest draft of the Tobacco Policy priorities. In light of a few calls today, our strategies around preemption and flavored products may be changing. Nicole, I know that you want this to go in the packet for the coalition and the deadline is noon tomorrow. I think that it is really close in terms of content but I want to be really careful about how we talk about these politically sensitive issues. Scott can you give this a look and give Nicole the green light? I think that the section on youth access still needs some work. Unfortunately, Sarah, Anne and I will be out of the office tomorrow. Also -- and maybe more key -- after today's new direction, we don't call out e-cigarettes in here anywhere yet. Do we want to add them now?

Scott-- for you reference, this document has evolved a fair amount. Here is where the youth access piece was earlier today: The tobacco industry knows that young people are more likely to start using tobacco and the majority of people who use tobacco become addicted when they are young. Big tobacco uses strategies like flavored products to get youth to start smoking. Flavored tobacco products have the appeal of candy and mask tobacco's harshness. Like cigarettes, they contain nicotine which is the addictive component of tobacco.. To prevent youth from starting to use tobacco products we plan to: * Restrict the sale of flavored tobacco products that lure youth into becoming addicted * Decrease access to tobacco products near places where youth like schools and parks * Increase knowledge of dangers of tobacco by requiring health messages at point of sale

Thanks, Joy

RWJF News Digest: Public HealthThis frequently updated news digest on the subject of Public Health highlights key articles from major news publications. The digest is a free service of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Beef Recall Heats Up Fight to Tighten Rules The New York Times, William Neuman, 09/02/2010 For the first time in this country, public health officials have linked ground beef to illnesses from a rare strain of E. coli, adding fuel to an already fierce debate over expanding federal rules meant to keep the toxic bacteria out of the meat supply. Cargill Meat Solutions recalled 8,500 pounds of hamburger on Saturday after investigators determined that it was the likely source of a bacterial strain known as E. coli O26, which had sickened three people in Maine and New York. Food Safety Groups Slam USDA Egg Graders at Farms in Recall USA Today, Alison Young, 09/02/2010 U.S. Department of Agriculture staff regularly on site at two Iowa egg processors implicated in a national salmonella outbreak were supposed to enforce rules against the presence of diseasespreading rodents and other vermin, federal regulations show. Though USDA says its authority was limited, the agency's egg graders were at Wright County Egg and Hillandale Farms at least 40 hours a week including before the outbreak inspecting the size and quality of eggs inside processing buildings. Electronic Cigarettes Attracting Smokers; But FDA Says Product Should Be Regulated Associated Press, Michael Felberbaum, 09/02/2010 Galen Kipe has not smoked a cigarette in more than three months. He could not kick his habit of 17 years with nicotine patches or gum. He finally put away his Marlboro menthols for good by swapping them for electronic cigarettes, which look like the real thing and give him his nicotine fix but do not contain tobacco. Vector-Borne Diseases Growing as Threats to U.S. Public Health: Climate Change, Travel Linked to Illness The Nations Health (American Public Health Association), Kim Krisberg, 09/01/2010 Last fall, an old resident returned to the beaches of Florida, though it certainly was not welcome and officials are determined to see its visit cut short. The unwanted visitor is mosquito-borne dengue, which made headlines this summer after public health officials found that 5 percent of Key West residents showed recent exposure to the virus. Pediatric Group Issues New Flu Shot Guidelines HealthDay News, 08/30/2010 All children and adolescents 6 months of age and older should receive the annual trivalent influenza vaccine this flu season, according to updated recommendations from the American

Youth Smoking Rates Now Stalled HealthDay News, 08/27/2010 Although teen smoking rates dropped in the past decade, they have stalled in recent years, which means increased tobacco prevention efforts are needed, a new U.S. government study shows. Between 2000 and 2009, cigarette smoking rates declined from 28 percent to 17.2 percent among high school students, and from 11 percent to 5.2 percent among middle school students, said researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 2010 All rights reserved.

The edits you just sent were on an older version and there have been changes made since then (the version with the date 9.29 was most current). I'll compare the two documents and get this figured out. I thought you were making formatting changes to have this match HEAL. We can have one of our support staff take care of that. Can you send the HEAL document?
