In 2010 the biggest focus for American lung association in Kentucky was advocating for

funding of tobacco cessation treatments for all Medicaid patients in Ky.

http://www.stateoftobaccocontrol.org/


Despite the large state budget deficit, the lung association and its public health

partners were successful in getting $1.5 million per year in state budget for a fiscal

year in 2011 and 2012



These state dollars will generate matching dollars from the federal government as well. This law was approved in 2007, maybe if we

keep supporting the program we can get more and more people to quit.

Recent studies have documented the factors associated with smoking acquisition

while in collage, yet little known about smoking cessation and quit attempts by

collage students.

A non-experimental, cross sectional design was used to explore the factors

affecting smoking behaviors to quit 88% used cold turkey during their attempts.


Significant predictors of attempts too quit smoking were the positive financial impact of quitting and the possibility of

weight gain.

Wakefield

Science children obtain most of their total dose of exposure to

environmental tobacco smoke in domestic settings, efforts to

encourage smoker parents to ban smoking indoors are

important.


Wakefield4 focus groups discussions were conducted with 33

smoker parents of children aged less than 10 years of age. Some said that simply smoking in a different room or another side from the child would confer

sufficient protection. After the children has gone to bed parents get the pressure to smoke because the kids aren't around or when there friends come over

and they smoke they don't want to tell them to leave the room or go out doors.


Wakefield

There are specific pros and cons perceived by parents to banning

smoking at home which may influence their like hood of creating

and maintaining such bans.

Schools are an important arena for smoking prevention. In many countries

smoking rates have been reduced among adolescents, but the use of smokeless

tobacco is on the rise in most of them. We aimed to study the restrictions between

smokeless and smoking tobacco.



We studied 1444 of Norwegian students aged 16-20 years.

Respondents were asked bout their schools’ restrictions on smoking and

smokeless tobacco. We found out the restrictions on the age, gender,

type of schools.



More explicit pervasive restrictions were strongly associated with the prevalence of

use. The first study on the associations between schools’ restrictions on snus and

the prevalence of snus use corroborate what has been found in many studies on

smoking restrictions and smoking.
