 Children at Serious Risk from Second Hand Smoke
Martin Jarvis and colleagues at University College London find that exposure to passive smoking among 11-15 year old children in England has almost halved since the late 1980s, partly due to a fall in the percentage of parents who smoke, and also to reduced smoking in public places.
Similarly, Melanie Wakefield, University of Illinois, Chicago, and colleagues report that bans on smoking at home -- as well as bans in public places and enforced school smoking bans -- may reduce teenage smoking in the United States.
In addition to increasing smoking restrictions in public places and workplaces, price increases, reduced availability of tobacco products, and mass media interventions, are also crucial if we are to protect children's health and prevent their recruitment to smoking in adolescence.
