PODCAST: A Better Public Health Approach to Tobacco

  • January 27, 2021
  • Crystal Swann
  • Colin Mortimer

For those concerned about nicotine addiction and tobacco consumption, a ban on flavored tobacco might sound like a good idea. But as Nkechi Taifa explains in this week’s PPI Podcast, such bans are going to almost entirely fall onto minority communities.

Several states are considering or have already banned flavored tobacco. Nkechi Taifa agrees with Crystal Swann that in time a time when we are rolling back the war on drugs in favor of a public health approach, we should be doing the same with tobacco.

Tune in here or wherever you get your podcasts.
