World No-Tobacco Day

World No-Tobacco Day is celebrated every year on 31 May. This event, which was launched by the World Health Organization(WHO), has been observed each year since 1989 to raise awareness of the health problems that tobacco use can cause.

What is Second-Hand Smoke?

Second-hand smoke, or environmental tobacco smoke(ETS), occurs when non-smokers breathe in other people's tobacco smoke. The WHO states that second-hand smoke is responsible for 600, 000 premature(早产 的)deaths per year. Children exposed to second-hand smoke are more likely to suffer diseases like asthma, ear infections, pneumonia and bronchitis.

While the consequence of smoking may seem far-off, they should be taken seriously. The WHO states that tobacco use is responsible for more than 6 million deaths every year, which is more than HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria combined.

What are the Health Benefits if I Stop Smoking?

Within 20 minutes your heart rate and blood pressure will drop, and in 12 hours the carbon monoxide level in your blood drops to normal.

Your circulation improves and your lung function increases within two to 12 weeks.

Coughing and shortness of breath decreases within one to nine months.
