\/>\n6<br \/>\nOVERVIEW<br \/>\nTobacco secondhand smoke [SHS] is a major health hazard,<br \/>\nespecially for infants and children. The Centers for Disease<br \/>\nControl and Prevention (CDC) reports that yearly, six million<br \/>\ndeaths worldwide are attributable to the use of tobacco<br \/>\nproducts (CDC 2015). Rising tobacco consumption is also<br \/>\nresponsible for increasing exposures to SHS where more than<br \/>\n50 carcinogens and 4,000 potentially harmful chemicals and<br \/>\ntoxins are present. These compounds are implicated in lung<br \/>\ncancer, heart disease, and other illnesses among nonsmokers<br \/>\n(WHO 2011).<br \/>\nPolicy makers and health advocates continue to express<br \/>\nconcerns over the health care and societal economic impacts<br \/>\nfrom chronic health effects of SHS on nonsmokers,<br \/>\nparticularly pregnant women and young children. It is<br \/>\nestimated that 50 million pregnant women and 700 million<br \/>\nchildren are exposed to SHS on a daily basis (Callinan et al.<br \/>\n2010). According to the World Health Organization (WHO)<br \/>\nFramework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), there is<br \/>\n\u201cno safe level of exposure to tobacco smoke\u201d with<br \/>\napproximately thirty-one percent of all deaths from SHS<br \/>\ninvolving children (WHO 2013b). WHO argues that the<br \/>\nreduction in tobacco use could significantly contribute to<br \/>\nUnited Nations Millennium Development Goals by directing<br \/>\nscarce resources to more productive programs such as<br \/>\neducation, health literacy and maternal and child health (WHO 2004).<br \/>\nThe SHS exposure challenge, especially faced by emerging market economy countries, can be<br \/>\nsummarized as follows:<br \/>\n\uf0b7 SHS disproportionately affects vulnerable populations including women and children.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 About 40% of children are regularly exposed to SHS at home. These children are 1.5-2<br \/>\ntimes more likely to become smokers (WHO 2013a).<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Approximately 5% of global burden of disease is attributable to SHS, a slightly higher<br \/>\nnumber than the burden from direct tobacco smoking of 4% (Singh and al. 2011).<br \/>\n\uf0b7 10% of tobacco-use-related economic costs are from SHS: provision of care for related<br \/>\nillnesses and indirect costs such as loss of productivity (WHO 2013a).<br \/>\nWHO Statements<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Tobacco kills up to half<br \/>\nof its users. Over 6<br \/>\nmillion people die from<br \/>\ntobacco each year.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 More than 5 million of<br \/>\nthose deaths are the result<br \/>\nof direct tobacco use<br \/>\nwhile more than 600 000<br \/>\nare the result of non-<br \/>\nsmokers being exposed to<br \/>\nsecond-hand smoke.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Nearly 80% of the<br \/>\nworld&rsquo;s 1 billion smokers<br \/>\nlive in low- and middle-<br \/>\nincome countries.<br \/>\n[Source: WHO Tobacco<br \/>\nFact sheet N\u00b0339.<br \/>\nUpdated July 2015]<br \/>\n7<br \/>\nSECTION ONE: Global Epidemiology of Secondhand Smoke Health Risks<br \/>\nLearning Objective: To understand the health risks from secondhand smoke<br \/>\nDefining the Problem<br \/>\nSecondhand smoke (SHS) has been defined as \u201cthe combination of smoke emitted from the<br \/>\nburning end of a cigarette or other tobacco products<br \/>\nand smoke exhaled by the smoker\u201d (WHO 2007). SHS<br \/>\nis also known as environmental tobacco smoke, passive<br \/>\nsmoking, and involuntary smoking.<br \/>\nTwo types of SHS are identified<br \/>\n1.) Mainstream smoke \u2013 the smoke that is exhaled<br \/>\nfrom the smoker\u2019s lungs<br \/>\n2.) Sidestream smoke \u2013 the smoke from the burning<br \/>\nend of a tobacco product<br \/>\nAlmost 15% of SHS exposure is mainstream and 85% is<br \/>\nsidestream though the composition of toxins in both<br \/>\nsources is similar (Callinan et al. 2010). Most SHS<br \/>\nexposure occurs in homes, private vehicles, and<br \/>\nworkplaces but also in such public places as restaurants,<br \/>\nbars, and casinos. The International Agency for<br \/>\nResearch on Cancer declared SHS to be carcinogenic<br \/>\nrisks to humans (IARC 2004).<br \/>\nSeveral categories of SHS exposure are described as it<br \/>\nrefers to one or both parents or another person in an<br \/>\nenclosed space (Oberg et al. 2011). National and<br \/>\ninternational organizations, such as the World Health<br \/>\nOrganization (WHO), the International Agency for<br \/>\nResearch on Cancer (IARC), the World Medical<br \/>\nAssociation (WMA), the United States Surgeon General<br \/>\n(DHHS), and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have developed a consensus on<br \/>\nthe negative health effects of SHS exposure on nonsmoking adults and children.<br \/>\nMagnitude of the Problem<br \/>\nAccording to the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control<br \/>\n(WHO FCTC), there is \u201cno safe level of exposure to tobacco smoke\u201d. Worldwide, SHS is<br \/>\nresponsible for an estimated 603,000 premature deaths and the loss of 10.9 million Disability-<br \/>\nAdjusted Life Years (DALYs) (Oberg et al 2011).

Approximately 30% of men<br \/>\nsmoke, compared to 13% women and 12% of youth ages 13-15 (Tobacco Atlas 2009). It has<br \/>\nbeen reported that as many as 40% of children and 35% of nonsmoking women were exposed to<br \/>\nSHS in 2004 (Oberg et al. 2011). It is likely that women and children who are exposed to SHS<br \/>\nhave male family members who smoke in the homes or in private vehicles. In low-income<br \/>\nSoutheast Asian countries, women are at least 50% more likely to become victims of SHS<br \/>\nexposure than are men (Singh and Lal 2011). Children with smoking parents are also<br \/>\nsignificantly more likely to be exposed to SHS (Vitoria et al. 2015).<br \/>\nWhile smoking bans in workplaces in high-income countries are commonplace, occupational<br \/>\nSHS exposure remains a critical issue in many parts of the world. According to the International<br \/>\nLabor Organization [ILO 2015], an estimated 168 million children are in the global workforce.<br \/>\nMany of these young workers are either smokers or at risk of SHS exposure. Figure 1 shows the<br \/>\npercentage of non-smoking adults who are exposed to SHS in the workplace for countries that<br \/>\ncompleted the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS)1<br \/>\nbetween 2008 and 2010.<br \/>\nWorldwide health professionals continue to smoke and will more likely not encourage patients to<br \/>\nstop smoking. A study of medical and dental students\u2019 habits in Southeast Asia region showed no<br \/>\nsignificant reduction in smoking trends between 2005-2006 and 2009-2011. There was a<br \/>\nsignificant increase in tobacco use among dental students during the same period. The findings<br \/>\nalso suggest no significant decline in SHS exposure at home and in public places in most<br \/>\n1<br \/>\nThe Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) is a nationally representative household survey launched by the WHO in<br \/>\n2007 as part of the Global Tobacco Surveillance System (GTSS). Participating countries are mainly from low- and<br \/>\nmiddle-income countries where the majority of the world\u2019s smokers reside.<br \/>\n9<br \/>\ncountries in this region. Of concern is the ability to effectively participate in and contribute to the<br \/>\nsmoking cessation campaigns by these professionals (Sinha et al. 2012).<br \/>\nOften neglected from the discussion of vulnerable populations to the exposure of SHS are people<br \/>\nwith disabilities. Those with disabilities are more likely to be smokers than abled-body<br \/>\npopulation by as much as 50% (Armour et al. 2007). They are more likely to be older, non-<br \/>\nHispanic white, female, and have lower levels of education. They are also more likely to report<br \/>\nhaving been exposed to SHS (Hall et al. 2013).<br \/>\nFigure 1: The Percentage of Non-Smoking Adults who are Exposed to SHS in the<br \/>\nWorkplace<br \/>\nSource: Adapted from WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2011<br \/>\nMeasuring the level of Tobacco SHS Exposures<br \/>\nEvidence documenting SHS exposures is obtained through survey questionnaires, direct<br \/>\nobservation of smoking behavior, measurement of tobacco residues in the air, and of cotinine<br \/>\nlevel in human urine [Source: Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health 2015<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.shsmonitoring.org\/SHS_Overview\/how\/index.html] .<br \/>\n%<br \/>\n10%<br \/>\n20%<br \/>\n30%<br \/>\n40%<br \/>\n50%<br \/>\n60%<br \/>\n70%<br \/>\n80%<br \/>\n90%<br \/>\n100%<br \/>\n10<br \/>\nSECTION TWO: Health Effects from Secondhand Smoke<br \/>\nLearning Objective: To explore the impact of secondhand smoke exposure on health<br \/>\nHealth Effects of SHS exposure<br \/>\nInternational studies repeatedly<br \/>\ndemonstrate tobacco SHS exposure in<br \/>\nprivate settings to be harmful to<br \/>\nnonsmokers. In New Zealand, Edwards et<br \/>\nal. showed that air particulate levels in a<br \/>\ncar with a person smoking inside when<br \/>\nwindows are partially or wholly down were<br \/>\nas high as those found in a typical smoky<br \/>\nbar, and twice as high when the car<br \/>\nwindows are closed (Edwards et al. 2006).<br \/>\nIn the UK, a British Medical Association<br \/>\n(BMA) report provided a strong evidence<br \/>\nfor SHS and exacerbation of childhood<br \/>\nillnesses such as asthma {Wang et al.<br \/>\n2015) and middle ear infections. Both<br \/>\nasthma and otitis media are correlated with<br \/>\npoor school attendance, scholastic<br \/>\nattainment, and increased hospital admissions (Muller 2007).<br \/>\nThere is a strong link between active smoking and incidence of depression (Kassel et al. 2003),<br \/>\nand in recent years evidence has been obtained to suggest the association between SHS exposure<br \/>\nand mental illnesses, especially among adults. An analysis of the 2005-2006 National Health and<br \/>\nNutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) found association between SHS exposure and<br \/>\ndepressive symptoms even after adjusting for potential confounders including age, race\/ethnicity,<br \/>\ngender, education, alcohol consumption, and medical comorbidities (Bandiera et al. 2010). A 6-<br \/>\nyear prospective study of 5,560 nonsmoking adults found association between SHS exposure and<br \/>\npsychiatric hospital admission (Hamer et al. 2010). These findings could also be indicative of<br \/>\npotential threat to children mental health, and deserve further evaluation.<br \/>\nThe effects of SHS exposure in pregnant women on fetal development has been the subject of<br \/>\nmany studies. A meta-analysis of 19 studies found that women who are exposed to tobacco SHS<br \/>\nduring pregnancy are 23% more likely to experience stillbirth and their babies are 13% more<br \/>\nlikely to be born with some form of congenital malformations (Leonardi-Bee et al. 2011).<br \/>\nReminder: SHS Health Effects in Adults:<br \/>\nevidence is good and supportive of the increased<br \/>\nrisk of association with:<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Coronary heart disease (Japuntich et al.<br \/>\n2015)<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Stroke (Olasky et al. 2012)<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Dementia (Barnes et al. 2010).<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Breast cancer (WHO 2007)<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Chronic respiratory illnesses (WHO 2007)<br \/>\nDecline in pulmonary function due to SHS<br \/>\nexposure has been reported (WHO 2007)<br \/>\n11<br \/>\nSHS and Health Risks in Children<br \/>\nSHS is particularly worrisome for infants and children as<br \/>\nthey are<br \/>\n1. Still developing mentally and physically,<br \/>\n2. Less aware of the consequences,<br \/>\n3. Less in control of their environments, and<br \/>\n4. At greater risk of morbidity and mortality than<br \/>\nadults. WHO estimated 700 million children to be<br \/>\nvictims of SHS by the 1.2 billion adults who<br \/>\nsmoke annually (Ash Research Report 2011).<br \/>\nIn the United States, more than half (almost 60%) of<br \/>\nchildren ages 3-11 years are exposed to SHS. An analysis<br \/>\nof multiple waves of NHANES showed that children had<br \/>\nsignificantly higher cotinine concentrations than adults<br \/>\n(Pirkle et al. 2006).<br \/>\nThe 2006 Surgeon General Report found causal evidence<br \/>\nfor tobacco SHS effects on infants and children\u2019s health<br \/>\nsuch as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), low birth<br \/>\nweight, lower respiratory illnesses, lung growth and<br \/>\npulmonary function2<br \/>\n. Children may be more prone to SHS-related respiratory illnesses due to<br \/>\ntheir smaller airways and higher demand for oxygen and because their immune systems have yet<br \/>\nto fully develop (Kabir et al. 2009). There is fair evidence that in-home SHS exposure of<br \/>\npremature African American infants is associated with poorer growth of head circumference and<br \/>\ndevelopment of otitis media (Brooks et al. 2011). Recent studies have started to detect<br \/>\nassociation between SHS and gross motor development (Evlampidou et al. 2015) and attention<br \/>\ndeficit hyperactivity disorder (Padron et al. 2015).<br \/>\nIt is suspected that SHS induced vascular changes in early childhood can trigger the onset of<br \/>\ncardiovascular disease (CVD) in adulthood, caused by exposures to parental tobacco use (Tanski<br \/>\nand Wilson 2012).<br \/>\nThe link between SHS exposure and mood disorders in children is unclear. In animal<br \/>\nexperiments, nicotine exposure in adolescence appears to induce depression-like state in<br \/>\nadulthood (Iniguez et al. 2008). SHS exposure may be a direct cause of psychiatric disorders. In<br \/>\nhumans, a longitudinal study of 151 adolescents with 5 year follow-up found that tobacco<br \/>\nsmoking elevates the risk of depressive episodes (Rao et al. 2009).<br \/>\n2<br \/>\nFor a full list of the findings from the 2006 US Surgeon General report regarding health effects of SHS, see<br \/>\nAppendix C and Appendix D<br \/>\nSHS Health Effects in Infants and<br \/>\nChildren: evidence is fair to good<br \/>\n1. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.<br \/>\n2. Low Birth Weight.<br \/>\n3. Pulmonary and Cardiovascular<br \/>\ndevelopmental risks.<br \/>\n4.

Susceptibility to<br \/>\ninvasivemeningococcal<br \/>\ninfections (Murray et al. 2012)<br \/>\n8. Mood changes and depression.<br \/>\n9. Lifelong risk of obesity<br \/>\n12<br \/>\nFinally, children exposed to smokers are also more likely to become smokers themselves.<br \/>\n(Milton et al. 2004). Exposure to SHS is also independently related to higher likelihood of<br \/>\nsmoking initiation for this population regardless of whether or not children live with smokers.<br \/>\nOther factors influencing smoking uptake include age, exposure to tobacco products, having<br \/>\nfriends that smoke, being offered tobacco products by peers, risk perceptions3<br \/>\n, and use of other<br \/>\ntobacco products such as chewing tobacco and cigars (Voorhees et al. 2011). In pre-adolescents,<br \/>\nexposure to SHS in cars is significantly associated with early smoking uptake (Glover et al.<br \/>\n2011). Recent studies are suggestive of an association between exposure to SHS and obesity<br \/>\n(McConnell et al. 2015).<br \/>\nThird Hand Tobacco Smoke Exposures (THS)<br \/>\nSmoking and SHS are harmful to the health of both smokers and nonsmokers. Recently,<br \/>\nevidence on health effects from the remaining tobacco residues deposited on surfaces, smokers\u2019<br \/>\nclothes and hair, began to accumulate. Nonsmokers who are exposed to such environments are<br \/>\nconsidered to be victims of third-hand tobacco smoking (THS) (Escoffery et al. 2013).<br \/>\nThere is evidence that trace levels of nicotine remains in the air, dust, and surfaces of residential<br \/>\nsettings which can be harmful especially to children. Nonsmokers who reside in homes<br \/>\npreviously occupied by smokers have demonstrated elevated levels of nicotine on hands and in<br \/>\nurine compared to those residing in homes where no one has smoked (Matt et al. 2011).<br \/>\nFurthermore, non-smoking rooms in hotels with partial smoking bans also show elevated level of<br \/>\nsurface nicotine, compared with hotels with complete smoking bans (Matt et al. 2011).<br \/>\nPotential in-vitro THS harm to human cells DNA has been reported (Hang et al. 2013). Studies<br \/>\nin rodents found that THS exposure increases the likelihood of alterations in liver metabolism<br \/>\nthat carry implications for the development of coronary thrombosis, stroke, or type 2 diabetes<br \/>\n(Karim et al. 2015). Children who play on exposed floor and put contaminated items in their<br \/>\nmouth are especially prone to the danger of THS (Hang et al. 2013, Ferrante et al. 2013). In light<br \/>\nof this evidence, it has been suggested that the term \u201cpassive smoke\u201d can no longer be an<br \/>\nequivalent of SHS as it should also include THS.<br \/>\nStudies on THS thus far have focused primarily on nicotine residues as an indicator of health<br \/>\nrisks. The role of particulate in the smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs),<br \/>\nfrom incomplete combustion of carbon-containing materials, is suspected to be carcinogenic<br \/>\n(Fleming et al. 2012).<br \/>\n3<br \/>\nYouth in the study were asked about their perceptions on 4 items 1) whether smoking presents any risk, 2) whether<br \/>\nsmoking presents short-term risk, 3) whether nicotine is addictive, and 4) whether smoking light cigarettes is safer<br \/>\n(Vorhees et al. 2011).<br \/>\n13<br \/>\n14<br \/>\nSECTION THREE: Control and Prevention of Secondhand Smoke Exposure<br \/>\nLearning objective: To explore SHS exposure control and interventions.<br \/>\nTobacco control efforts have been seen in the US for<br \/>\nover 50 years. Such efforts have resulted in a substantial<br \/>\ndecrease in tobacco use from 42% in 1965 to 18% today<br \/>\nbut the issue remains high on the health agenda for the<br \/>\n21st<br \/>\ncentury (Brennan and Schroeder 2014). The US<br \/>\n2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA) expands access to and<br \/>\ninsurance coverage of most smoking cessation services.<br \/>\nThe ACA also allows employers to charge smokers a<br \/>\nhigher percentage of their insurance premiums. In<br \/>\naddition, there has been a trend against hiring smokers.<br \/>\nThe most important effect from these initiatives is the<br \/>\nhope there will be a decrease in smoking uptake among<br \/>\nyoung people (Ibid). This section describes some of the<br \/>\nways governments and organizations around the world<br \/>\nare using to control the use of tobacco.<br \/>\nSmoking Cessation Campaigns<br \/>\nAs part of the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA)<br \/>\nbetween U.S. states and tobacco companies, the<br \/>\nAmerican Legacy Foundation was created to fund the<br \/>\n\u201cTruth\u201d mass media campaign to prevent teen smoking<br \/>\nand encourage smokers to quit. Several studies have confirmed the social and cost effectiveness<br \/>\nof Truth ads since its launch in 2012 through the reduction in youth smoking prevalence and<br \/>\ntobacco-related healthcare costs (Ferelly et al. 2005, Ferrelly et al. 2009, Niederdeppe et al. 2004,<br \/>\nSly et al. 2002, Holtgrave et al. 2009, and Richardson et al. 2010). Similar media campaigns<br \/>\nhave been introduced following such success, including the Tips From Former Smokers (Tips)<br \/>\nand Finish It campaigns in 2012 and 2014 respectively.<br \/>\nAt the international level, efforts are under way to encourage smoking cessation. The WHO<br \/>\nFramework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) comprises 173 countries, covering 87% of<br \/>\nthe world\u2019s population, pledging strong actions against tobacco smoking (WHO 2012). Tobacco<br \/>\ncontrol does not impede the economic development such as causing job losses and decreasing<br \/>\ngovernment revenue (World Bank 2011). Instead, tobacco control measures are effective and<br \/>\nefficient in reducing its consumption (Esson and Leeder 2004). Progress continues to be made on<br \/>\nmeasures aimed at reducing the demand for tobacco, mostly in low- and middle- income<br \/>\nIn 2008, WHO introduced MPOWER<br \/>\nmeasures, a package of six evidence-<br \/>\nbased tobacco control measures, which<br \/>\nprovide guidelines for country-level<br \/>\nimplementation of effective demand-<br \/>\nside interventions to reduce tobacco<br \/>\nuse. The six measures include<br \/>\n1. monitoring tobacco use and<br \/>\nprevention policies<br \/>\n2. protecting people from tobacco<br \/>\nsmoke<br \/>\n3. offering help to quit tobacco use<br \/>\n4. warning about the dangers of<br \/>\ntobacco<br \/>\n5. enforcing bans on tobacco<br \/>\nadvertising, promotion and<br \/>\nsponsorship, and<br \/>\n6. raising taxes on tobacco<br \/>\n15<br \/>\ncountries. In 2011, the WHO reported that 3.8 billion people were effectively covered by tobacco<br \/>\ncontrol laws. The FCTC has been one of the most successful treaties in the history of the United<br \/>\nNations (WHO 2011).<br \/>\nSmoking Bans<br \/>\nPublic Spaces<br \/>\nIn addition to reducing the demand for tobacco, the global public health community also aims to<br \/>\nprotect the public from the hazards of SHS exposure by encouraging the implementation of<br \/>\ncomprehensive smoke-free laws. Having separate smoking sections, smoking rooms, and better<br \/>\nventilation systems do not protect people from SHS exposure. Creating a completely smoke-free<br \/>\nenvironment is the only proven way. Figure 2 shows the implementation percentage of five<br \/>\ntypes of smoking bans around the world. Article 8 of the FCTC mandates members to \u201cprotect<br \/>\ncitizens from exposure to tobacco smoke in workplaces, public transport and indoor public<br \/>\nplaces,\u201d (WHO 2007). Comprehensive smoke-free legislation has been implemented in many<br \/>\ncountries in public places such as bars and restaurants. It has shown to be popular with the public,<br \/>\nnot harmful to the economy, and beneficial to people\u2019s health (WHO 2010). These restrictions<br \/>\nare supported and recommended by the Article 8.<br \/>\nFigure 2: Five Types of Smoking Bans in Public Places (% of Countries categorized by<br \/>\nWHO Regions)<br \/>\n0<br \/>\n20<br \/>\n40<br \/>\n60<br \/>\n80<br \/>\n100<br \/>\n120<br \/>\nAfrica Americas Southeast Asia Europe E.<br \/>\nMediterranean<br \/>\nWestern Pacific<br \/>\nBan in Public Transportation<br \/>\nBan in Restaurants<br \/>\nBan in Schools<br \/>\nBan in Healthcare Facilities<br \/>\nBan in Offices<br \/>\n16<br \/>\nSource: WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2013<br \/>\nIn the United States, the CDC considers a state smoking ban to be comprehensive if it prohibits<br \/>\nsmoking in privately-owned workplaces, restaurants, and bars (CDC 2011). Twenty six states<br \/>\npassed such legislation by the end of 2010. As of October 2, 2015, according to the American<br \/>\nNonsmokers&rsquo; Rights Foundation, 81.9% of the U.S. population are protected by a smoking ban in<br \/>\n\u00ab\u00a0workplaces, and\/or restaurants, and\/or bars, by<br \/>\neither a state, commonwealth, or local law\u201d(ANR<br \/>\n2015).<br \/>\nFew developing countries have comprehensive<br \/>\nsmoke-free legislation (Barnoya and Navas-Acien<br \/>\n2013). Where bans exists, nonetheless, evidence is<br \/>\nencouraging. Santa Fe, Argentina, in 2005, was the<br \/>\nfirst subnational jurisdiction in Latin America to<br \/>\nimplement a comprehensive smoke-free policy. A<br \/>\nreview of the process of approval and<br \/>\nimplementation between 2005 and 2009 shows<br \/>\nsuccess despite some opposition, setting an<br \/>\nexample for other jurisdictions in Argentina as<br \/>\nwell as in Mexico and Brazil (Sebrie and Glantz<br \/>\n2010). In 2009, Mexico City passed a similar<br \/>\nlegislation (Crosbie et al. 2011).<br \/>\nAs indoor smoking bans become increasingly<br \/>\ncommon, there has been a concern whether an<br \/>\nincrease in outdoor smoking is subjecting others to<br \/>\nSHS. The FCTC was revised in 2007 to further<br \/>\nrecommend that quasi-outdoor and certain outdoor<br \/>\npublic places should be smoke-free. The guidelines<br \/>\nencourage countries to \u201cadopt the most effective protection against exposure wherever the<br \/>\nevidence shows that hazard exists\u201d (WHO 2009). Support for smoking bans in selected outdoor<br \/>\nsettings such as terraces, patios, and building entrances of healthcare facilities and hotels where<br \/>\nchildren may be present is on the rise (Thomson et al. 2009). While critics have argued that such<br \/>\nbans violate individual rights with insufficient evidence of impact on health (Chapman 2008), a<br \/>\nreview of 18 studies found that SHS levels in some outdoor areas may be significant, particularly<br \/>\nthose that are semi-enclosed (Sureda et al. 2013).<br \/>\nSmoking bans in bars and<br \/>\nrestaurants have been enacted<br \/>\nin Norway, New Zealand,<br \/>\nEngland, Scotland, Wales,<br \/>\nNorthern Ireland, Italy,<br \/>\nSpain, Malta, and France.<br \/>\nRecently middle-income<br \/>\ncountries have also enacted<br \/>\nsmoke-free laws. Between<br \/>\n2008 and 2010, 16 countries<br \/>\nadopted comprehensive<br \/>\nsmoke-free legislation which<br \/>\nmeans 31 countries around<br \/>\nthe world now have taken<br \/>\nsteps to provide the highest<br \/>\nlevel of protection against<br \/>\nSHS for their citizens (WHO<br \/>\n2011).<br \/>\n17<br \/>\nPrivate Spaces<br \/>\nWith more countries adopting public smoking bans,<br \/>\nhomes are becoming a predominant place for smoking.<br \/>\nAnti-smoking legislation for public places may also help<br \/>\nsmokers who struggle to quit and encourage people to<br \/>\ncreate smoke-free environment in their homes and<br \/>\nprivate vehicles (WHO 2010). Consensus is lacking with<br \/>\nregard to whether smoking bans in public places<br \/>\npositively influence smoking bans in private spaces. On<br \/>\nthe one hand, the International Agency for Research on<br \/>\nCancer (IARC) reports that workers in smoke-free<br \/>\nenvironments are more likely to implement smoking<br \/>\nrestrictions at home, and that home smoking restrictions<br \/>\nhave greater influence on smoking behavior than those in<br \/>\nworkplaces (IARC 2009). A study also found a reduction<br \/>\nin in-home smoking rates after the enforcement of anti-<br \/>\nsmoking law in public spaces (Aslan et al. 2015). On the<br \/>\nother hand, a research conducted in Spain reveals that<br \/>\nsmoking bans in public spaces have not reduced the<br \/>\nexposure of SHS in children in the home (Fernandez et al.<br \/>\n2015).<br \/>\nUnlike homes, cars represent private properties in the<br \/>\npublic sphere. Laws governing seatbelt, child seat, and<br \/>\nmobile phone use are already in place to protect both the<br \/>\npublic and occupants of the vehicles. With existing<br \/>\nevidence of harmfulness of SHS exposure on children,<br \/>\nsimilar measures should be considered regarding<br \/>\nsmoking in the presence of children (Freeman et al.<br \/>\n2008). An increasing number of state and local<br \/>\ngovernments, in the United States and other<br \/>\nindustrialized countries, enacted legislations to prohibit smoking in private vehicles when<br \/>\nchildren are present. Examples of U.S.A. jurisdictions that passed legislations are the states of<br \/>\nLouisiana (under age 13, August 2006), Maine (under age 18, January 2007), California (under<br \/>\nage 18, January 2008), Arkansas (under age 14, March 2011), and internationally counties of<br \/>\nNewfoundland, Canada (under age 16, May 2011), Victoria, Australia (under age 18, January<br \/>\n2010), South Africa (under age 12, September 2009) (GASP 2015).<br \/>\nThe American Cancer<br \/>\nSociety 2013:<br \/>\n\u201cMaking your home smoke-<br \/>\nfree may be one of the most<br \/>\nimportant things you can do<br \/>\nfor the health of your family.<br \/>\nAny family member can<br \/>\ndevelop health problems<br \/>\nrelated to SHS.<br \/>\nChildren\u2019s growing bodies<br \/>\nare especially sensitive to the<br \/>\npoisons in SHS. Asthma,<br \/>\nlung infections, and ear<br \/>\ninfections are more common<br \/>\nin children who are around<br \/>\nsmokers. Some of these<br \/>\nproblems can be serious and<br \/>\neven life-threatening. Others<br \/>\nmay seem like small<br \/>\nproblems, but they add up<br \/>\nquickly \u2014 the expenses,<br \/>\ntime for doctor visits,<br \/>\nmedicines, lost school time,<br \/>\nand often lost work time for<br \/>\nthe parent who must stay<br \/>\nhome with a sick child.\u201d<br \/>\n18<br \/>\nDespite a significant support, public compliance is still<br \/>\nproblematic and difficult to enforce since it impinges on the<br \/>\nindividual privacy and freedom of choice. Introduction of<br \/>\npreventive measures continue to be inadequate in the face of the<br \/>\ngrowing concerns over the health effects on children from SHS<br \/>\nexposure. A study in the United Kingdom found that 86% of<br \/>\nsmoking parents believed that SHS exposure was harmful for<br \/>\ntheir children. However, less than 20% of these parents ban<br \/>\nsmoking in their homes (Blackburn et al. 2003). Though smoking<br \/>\nin cars and homes is decreasing children, especially in the lower<br \/>\nsocio-economic strata, continue to be exposed to SHS (Moore et<br \/>\nal. 2011, Moore et al. 2015).<br \/>\nPackaging and Labeling<br \/>\nAs the tobacco industry faces stricter marketing restrictions by<br \/>\ngovernments around the world, many tobacco companies turn to<br \/>\ncigarette packaging as a main avenue for product advertisement.<br \/>\nArticle 11 of the WHO FCTC addresses this issue. It sets<br \/>\nstandards for packaging and labeling of tobacco products for<br \/>\nmember states. This mandate reflects the emerging evidence<br \/>\nstrongly supporting the effectiveness of displaying text and<br \/>\npictorial warning labels. WHO has established a data base for<br \/>\npictorial health warnings and messages. In addition, the WHO<br \/>\nprovides guidelines and technical assistance for implementation<br \/>\nof Article 11 (WHO 2011)4<br \/>\n.<br \/>\nAvailability and Limitations of Tobacco Sales<br \/>\nUsually, age determines the purchase ability of tobacco. However,<br \/>\nthere are little restrictions on where cigarettes can be sold. The<br \/>\nWHO FCTC does not provide guidelines or suggest tobacco<br \/>\nretailing regulation. Cigarettes and other tobacco products can be<br \/>\nsold freely at any business unlike alcoholic beverage retailing that<br \/>\nis subjected to licensing and hours of day, among other<br \/>\n4<br \/>\nGuidelines on packaging and labelling of tobacco products<br \/>\nAt its third session in November 2008, the Conference of the Parties (COP) adopted guidelines for implementation<br \/>\nof Article 11 of the WHO FCTC on \u00ab\u00a0Packaging and labelling of Tobacco Products\u00a0\u00bb (decision FCTC\/COP3(10)).<br \/>\nThe World Health<br \/>\nOrganization:<br \/>\n\u201cArticle 11 of the WHO<br \/>\nFCTC requires that health<br \/>\nwarning labels on<br \/>\ntobacco packaging (to):<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Be approved by the<br \/>\ncompetent national<br \/>\nauthority;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Should cover 50% or<br \/>\nmore of the principal<br \/>\npack display areas, but<br \/>\nshould be no less than<br \/>\n30%;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Be large, clear, visible<br \/>\nand legible;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Not use misleading<br \/>\nterms like \u201clight\u201d and<br \/>\n\u201cmild\u201d;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Be rotated periodically<br \/>\nto remain fresh and<br \/>\nnovel to consumers;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Display information<br \/>\non relevant<br \/>\nconstituents and<br \/>\nemissions of tobacco<br \/>\nproducts as defined by<br \/>\nnational authorities;<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Appear in the principle<br \/>\nlanguage (s) of the<br \/>\ncountry.\u201d<br \/>\n19<br \/>\nrestrictions. There are few places and jurisdictions in the US, Australia, Canada, and Singapore<br \/>\nthat issue tobacco licensing, but the enforcement is lax and licensures are rarely revoked<br \/>\n(Chapman and Freeman 2009).<br \/>\nIn the US, recent debates focused on the wisdom of cigarette sale in pharmacies where health<br \/>\npromoting medications and supplements are sold. In 2010, the American Pharmacists<br \/>\nAssociation urged pharmacies to discontinue the sale of tobacco products. It also discouraged<br \/>\nstate pharmacy boards from issuing and renewing licenses for pharmacies that do not follow the<br \/>\nrecommendation. Since then, other entities such as the American Lung Association, the<br \/>\nAmerican Heart Association, and the American Cancer Society began to promote and encourage<br \/>\nbans on tobacco sale in pharmacies (Brennan and Schroeder 2014). In February 2014, CVS<br \/>\nCaremark announced that it will stop selling tobacco products at its more than 7,600 stores in the<br \/>\nUS even though it will cost about $2 billion in annual revenue (Kenen and Cheney 2014).<br \/>\nAlthough the move is unlikely to reduce smoking prevalence since people can still purchase<br \/>\ncigarettes somewhere else, it is hoped that other businesses will follow suit and discontinue sale<br \/>\nof tobacco products at their establishments which will further reduce access (Brennan and<br \/>\nSchroeder 2014).<br \/>\nLegal Precedents on SHS and Children (US)<br \/>\nIn the US, neglect is the most common form of child maltreatment, its recognition is less<br \/>\napparent than child abuse, and therefore is often underreported (USDHHS 2009). Under the<br \/>\nChild Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) of 1974, the SHS exposures can be argued<br \/>\nas child abuse and\/or neglect, detailed under the health hazard section of inadequate supervision.<br \/>\nThe international community is catching on in this regard. In May 2013, Latvia\u2019s legislature<br \/>\nadopted an amendment to the Protection of the Rights of the Child Law to include a smoking-ban<br \/>\nin children\u2019s presence to protect their right to grow up in a smoke-free environment. The law<br \/>\nadded the \u201cintentional subjection of a child to a harmful environment, including tobacco smoke\u201d<br \/>\nas a form of child abuse (Roudik 2013).<br \/>\nReview of the legal literature suggests that child custody is a primary motivator for reduced SHS<br \/>\nexposure at home. Hundreds of legal cases, in over 20 US states, showed that, SHS was a factor<br \/>\nin court rulings in child custody disputes and labeled as the \u2018best interest of the child\u2019 (Sweda<br \/>\n2001). Only in one instance, SHS was judged a criminal offense (Sweda et al. 1998). The fair<br \/>\nevidence and difficulty of enforcement in private spaces have been suggested as reasons for the<br \/>\ncurrent practice of voluntary in-home smoking restrictions policies (Jarvie and Malone 2008).<br \/>\n20<br \/>\nSECTION FOUR: Effectiveness of Interventions<br \/>\nLearning objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of<br \/>\ninterventions aimed at reducing SHS exposure<br \/>\nMany legislations and interventions aimed at smoking<br \/>\ncessation or at reducing SHS exposure among<br \/>\nnonsmokers have been implemented at various levels.<br \/>\nThese include but are not limited to smoke-free<br \/>\npolicies and bans, education campaigns, health<br \/>\npromotion, social-behavioral therapies, and clinical<br \/>\ninterventions. The effectiveness of these approaches varies<br \/>\nfrom jurisdiction to jurisdiction depending on factors such as<br \/>\nperceptions, funding, and infrastructure. This section gathers<br \/>\nexisting evidence of the impact interventions have had on<br \/>\nSHS exposure.<br \/>\nA systematic review of infants and children aged 0-12 years<br \/>\nold and focused on family members, child care workers, and<br \/>\nteachers in community as well as healthcare settings did not<br \/>\nfind one intervention to be more effective over others. There<br \/>\nis fair evidence that intensive counseling in a clinical setting<br \/>\nmay be beneficial to reduce SHS exposure (Priest et al. 2008).<br \/>\nAmong the adult population in Australia, smoking cessation<br \/>\ncare and support procedures are shown to be suboptimal<br \/>\n(Anderson et al. 2013).<br \/>\nMore recent studies involved special populations and<br \/>\ncombinations of interventions. While smoking uptake rate has<br \/>\ndecreased in the general populations, the same trend is not<br \/>\noccurring among Native American youth. There is a lack of<br \/>\nstudies on the population to provide evidence whether interventions for smoking cessation are<br \/>\neffective (Carson et al 2012). In young people in general, in-school interventions appear more<br \/>\neffective when led by adults than by young people while increasing the number of sessions does<br \/>\nnot lead to a greater success rate (Thomas et al. 2013). Multicomponent interventions which<br \/>\ninvolve various stakeholders such as the media, retailers, and teachers have been studied but<br \/>\nhave shown no long-term effectiveness in preventing smoking uptake within this population<br \/>\n(Carson et al 2013). Interventions that utilize behavioral counseling in conjunction with<br \/>\nmedication have shown some evidence of effectiveness. A review of 41 studies found that using<br \/>\ncombination interventions may increase cessation success rate by 70 to 100 percent compared<br \/>\nThomas R. Frieden, M.D.,<br \/>\nM.P.H.<br \/>\nDirector, Centers for<br \/>\nDisease Control and<br \/>\nPrevention<br \/>\n\u201cFurther significant<br \/>\nprogress in tobacco<br \/>\ncontrol is possible. Strong<br \/>\nstate policies that protect<br \/>\nnonsmokers from second-<br \/>\nhand smoke, use of media<br \/>\nto graphically show the<br \/>\nhuman impact of smoking,<br \/>\nwell-funded tobacco<br \/>\ncontrol programs, and<br \/>\nimplementation of other<br \/>\nkey evidence-based<br \/>\npolicies will decrease the<br \/>\nnumber of smokers and<br \/>\nsave lives.\u201d<br \/>\nSources of bias<br \/>\nOften published studies use<br \/>\ndifferent definitions for smoking,<br \/>\nsmokers, and quit attempts. It is<br \/>\nalso unclear whether intensity and<br \/>\nduration of mass media campaigns<br \/>\ninfluence effectiveness of<br \/>\ninterventions (Bala et al. 2013)<br \/>\n21<br \/>\nwith counseling intervention alone. Cessation counseling ranged between 4 to 8 sessions and up<br \/>\nto 30 minutes each time. There is little evidence that longer or higher number of counseling<br \/>\nsessions can increase rate of success (Stead and Lancaster 2012).<br \/>\nMass media campaigns and financial support have also been explored as ways to encourage<br \/>\nsmoking cessation. Such campaigns can be effective when combined with other interventions<br \/>\nbut their effects on smoke cessation alone are difficult to determine. In April 2013, the<br \/>\nCommunity Preventive Services Task Force, established by the US Department of Health and<br \/>\nHuman Services (USDHHS), an equivalent of a ministry of health, issued a statement<br \/>\nrecommending mass-reach health interventions. Their systematic review of over 90 studies<br \/>\nshowed strong evidence of effectiveness in<br \/>\n1. Decreasing the prevalence,<br \/>\n2. Increasing quit rates, and<br \/>\n3. Decreasing smoking uptakes (Community Preventive Services Task Force 2013).<br \/>\nFinancial costs of treatments to help smokers quit can be itself a barrier to cessation. A review of<br \/>\neleven trials involving financial interventions suggests that provision of full financial coverage<br \/>\nfor cessation treatments significantly increased the intention to and success rates of quitting<br \/>\ncompared to interventions without financial support (Reda et al. 2012).<br \/>\nCurrently, there are no rigorous, peer-reviewed studies exploring the safety and effectiveness of<br \/>\nelectronic cigarettes as a smoking cessation treatment due to its relatively recent introduction to<br \/>\nthe world market. A New Zealand study revealed that although the use of e-cigarettes is<br \/>\nuncommon, most people view them in a positive light and as a potential useful aid in cessation<br \/>\neffort (Bullen et al. 2013). The WMA concludes from the uncertainty about electronic cigarettes<br \/>\nthat \u201cthe manufacture and sale of e-cigarettes and other electronic nicotine delivery systems be<br \/>\nsubject to national regulatory bodies prior approval based on testing and research as either a new<br \/>\nform of tobacco product or as a drug delivery device,\u201d (WMA Statement on Electronic<br \/>\nCigarettes and Other Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems). In addition, the WMA urges \u201cthe<br \/>\nWHO to add tobacco cessation medications with established efficacy to the WHO\u2019s Model List<br \/>\nof Essential Medicines,\u201d (WMA Statement on Health Hazards of Tobacco Products and<br \/>\nTobacco-Derived Products).<br \/>\nEvidence suggests that anti-smoking legislation reduces SHS exposure and incidents of certain<br \/>\nhealth conditions. A systematic review of 50 studies in 5 countries showed consistent evidence<br \/>\nof reduction of SHS exposure in workplaces, restaurants, bars and in public places (Callinan et al.<br \/>\n2010). Other studies on smoking bans have shown effectiveness in reducing the incidents of<br \/>\nheart attack (Sargent et al. 2004; Seo and Torabi 2007; Lemstra et al. 2008;). A meta-analysis on<br \/>\nthe effect of smoke-free legislation and the rates of community heart attacks provides evidence<br \/>\nthat public and workplace smoking bans are significantly associated with declines in relative risk<br \/>\n22<br \/>\nof heart disease among individuals exposed to SHS. Strong anti-smoking laws are effective in<br \/>\nlowering the incidents of acute myocardial infarctions and greater benefits are realized as time<br \/>\npasses (Lightwood and Glantz 2009). A case study of legislation to ban smoking in public places<br \/>\nin a Canadian city of Saskatoon showed a reduction in rates of heart attack as well as a decrease<br \/>\nin smoking prevalence. Seventy-nine percent of the city residents supported the ban (Lemstra et<br \/>\nal. 2008).<br \/>\nAt the national and global levels, the WHO conducted a 3-year study involving 41 countries that<br \/>\nadopted MPOWER5 policies between 2007 and 2010. The results showed that among these<br \/>\ncountries, the number of smokers dropped by about 14.8 million. Approximately 7.4 million<br \/>\npeople were saved from smoking-related deaths. The most effective policy was an increase in<br \/>\ntaxes to 75% of the final retail price which was implemented in 14 countries. The policy is<br \/>\nestimated to have averted 3.5 million smoking-related deaths. Smoke-free air laws at worksites,<br \/>\nrestaurants, and bars averted 2.5 million deaths. Other policies such as health warnings and<br \/>\nadvertising, smoking cessation treatments, and bans on tobacco advertising (Levy et al. 2013)<br \/>\nclaim reduction in mortality attributed to SHS. A study from Scotland stresses the importance of<br \/>\nsmoking cessation rather than reduction. Current evidence provides a robust support for<br \/>\nlegislative smoking bans leading to improved health outcomes by limiting SHS exposures,<br \/>\nespecially for soronary artery disease (Frazier et al. 2016). Unfortunately the evidence on<br \/>\nrespiratory and perinatal health outcomes, smoking prevalence and tobacco consumption, is<br \/>\ninconsistent and requires further epidemiological studies<br \/>\nSummary of Policies and Interventions (see also Appendix B)<br \/>\nInterventions to encourage smoking cessation and reduce exposure to SHS vary widely and<br \/>\ninvolve many stakeholders and components. On the other hand, tobacco policies implemented at<br \/>\nthe national level have shown effectiveness in averting smoking-related deaths. A minimum<br \/>\nincrease in taxes to 75% of the retail price appears most effective. The results, however, are<br \/>\nbased on a 3-year study by the WHO. Long-term effectiveness and policy spill-overs remain to<br \/>\nbe evaluated. Studies have suggested targeting vulnerable groups such as people with disabilities<br \/>\nwho are more likely to smoke but are also more likely to attempt quitting (Hall et al. 2013).<br \/>\nInterventions should also be targeted to preventing smoking uptake in adolescents. The Cochrane<br \/>\nCollaboration is undertaking a review of school-based interventions looking at the effectiveness<br \/>\nof school tobacco control policies not just at the individual level but also the environmental level.<br \/>\nExisting studies show mixed results and a systematic review will provide guidance as to what<br \/>\ntypes of school policies are most likely to deter smoking uptake among adolescents (Coppo et al.<br \/>\n2012).<br \/>\n5<br \/>\nMonitoring use, protecting from smoke, offering help to quit, warning of health risks, enforcing bans, raising taxes<br \/>\non tobacco.<br \/>\n23<br \/>\nSECTION FIVE: Conclusions<br \/>\nExposure to SHS of nonsmokers is a major public health concern. Studies consistently show a<br \/>\nstrong evidence of SHS association with lower respiratory illnesses, cardiovascular disease, and<br \/>\ncoronary heart diseases. Risk of exposure to SHS is present everywhere smoking is permitted<br \/>\nand is threatening the health of adults and children in particular. In the recent years, evidence has<br \/>\nemerged for the deleterious health effects from third-hand smoking (THS). This has resulted in<br \/>\nsome health care facilities issuing guidelines to minimize exposures of patient to health care<br \/>\nworkers\u2019 tobacco impregnated clothing and other personal effects. The impact of THS on health<br \/>\nwarrants further research and it is essential that standard definitions be set for related terms in<br \/>\norder to be able conduct meta-analyses to increase the strength of evidence (Ueta et al. 2010,<br \/>\nFerrante et al. 2013, Protano and Vitali 2011, Escoffery et al. 2013).<br \/>\nSmoking bans are common in public places such as bars and restaurants in developed countries<br \/>\nand developing countries are swiftly following suit. The majority of the world\u2019s smokers today<br \/>\nreside in developing countries and the respective governments are acutely aware of the negative<br \/>\nhealth consequences of tobacco smoking. They are at the forefront in advocacy of smoking<br \/>\nrestriction legislation although most of them do not yet have comprehensive legislation (Barnoya<br \/>\nand Navas-Acien 2013). Smoking bans in the homes have not been legislated anywhere in the<br \/>\nworld despite overwhelming support. Only a few places ban smoking in vehicles when children<br \/>\nare present. Homes and vehicles are the main settings where nonsmokers are exposed to SHS.<br \/>\nThe WHO FCTC provides guidelines aimed at curbing the demand for cigarettes such as<br \/>\nrestricting advertisements and displaying graphics of harms on packages and labels but does not<br \/>\ninterfere with the supply side. Although demand side control has shown substantial success in<br \/>\nvarious places, there have been recent talks about limiting the sale of tobacco products in certain<br \/>\nestablishments such as pharmacies as recommended by the American Pharmacists Association.<br \/>\nInterventions to encourage smoking cessation and to reduce exposure to SHS among nonsmokers<br \/>\nhave been implemented at many levels. However, the wide variety of interventions and<br \/>\ninsufficient number of trials does not allow conclusions to be drawn with regard to effectiveness<br \/>\nof different methods or combination of methods. National level policies, on the other hand,<br \/>\nappear promising as the WHO has shown that they have averted millions of smoking-related<br \/>\ndeaths around the world.<br \/>\nIn 2012, the WHO created the Protocol to Eliminate Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products as<br \/>\nsupplement to the FCTC. Illicit trade increases availability and affordability of tobacco products.<br \/>\nAs its name indicates, the protocol aims to combat illicit trade in tobacco products with the<br \/>\nultimate goal of eradication. As of May 2015, it has 180 parties and has been ratified by 53 states<br \/>\n(WHO 2015). China has created the Policy Performance Indicator (PPI) to measure policy<br \/>\n24<br \/>\nsuccess based on protection of non-smokers from<br \/>\nSHS and is being implemented across the country<br \/>\n(Wan et al. 2013). The focus on developing countries<br \/>\nis critical as they are where the majority of SHS<br \/>\nvictims reside. International philanthropic donations<br \/>\nmay play a role in changing the norms and the<br \/>\nperceptions of tobacco use leading to major health<br \/>\ngains (Redmon et al. 2013). It is important to build<br \/>\ntobacco control capacity in order to effectively<br \/>\nimplement the FCTC (Stillman et al. 2013). Bans on<br \/>\nSHS exposure of children in indoor spaces, such as<br \/>\ncars and homes, hve been implemented by several<br \/>\ncountries, and are considered by others6<br \/>\n(Moore et al.<br \/>\n2012, Moore et. al. 2015).<br \/>\nThe e-cigarettes is welcomed, by the world<br \/>\ncommunity as an alternative to tobacco. E-cigatrettes effectiveness as smoking cessation<br \/>\ntreatment is still under investigation and the its SHS health effects is inconclusive. Concerns over<br \/>\nhealth effects from e-cigarettes vapor exposure , in closed environments, led to<br \/>\nrecommendations for surveillance and additional epidemiological studies (Burstyn 2014, Akl et<br \/>\nal. 2010). Since 2015 legislation and regulations for the use of e-cigarettes were enacted or being<br \/>\nconsidered by over 70 countries. Such legislations usually follow similar restrictions as the use<br \/>\nof tobacco. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), introduced a new regulation of the<br \/>\ne-cigarettes to enter in effect in August 2016 (Abbas 2016<br \/>\n). The summaries of evidence of SHS effects on health are presented in appendix A and B.<br \/>\nPoints to Remember<br \/>\n1. Robust evidence links tobacco use to pulmonary, cardiovascular and neurological<br \/>\ndiseases, including cancer.<br \/>\n2. Good evidence links SHS tobacco exposures to medical problems in infants, children and<br \/>\nadults. Fair evidence supports health risks from exposure to the increasing use of hookah<br \/>\n[narguileh, water pipe] around the world (Akl et al. 2010, Kumar et al. 2015).<br \/>\n3. SHS tobacco exposures in private place continues to be a major health threat to pregnant<br \/>\nwomen, infants and children, and in several US litigation case were labeled as child<br \/>\nneglect [rarely as abuse].<br \/>\n4. Developing market economy countries continue to have higher tobacco use and SHS<br \/>\nexposure levels.Akl et al. 2010),<br \/>\n6<br \/>\nSmoking bans in cars with children and\/or passengers. Smoking bans inside housing have been implemented only<br \/>\nin few countries. The US bans vary from state to state.<br \/>\nLegislative Status as of 2016<br \/>\nEven though progress has been<br \/>\nsteady, policy implementation has<br \/>\nbeen slow. There is an urgent need<br \/>\nfor further research in areas such as<br \/>\nsmoking bans in indoor and outdoor<br \/>\nspaces and the health impact of SHS<br \/>\nand THS on socio-economically<br \/>\ndisadvantaged and vulnerable<br \/>\npopulations (Barnoya and Navas-<br \/>\nAcien 2013, Moore et al. 2015)<br \/>\n25<br \/>\n5. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS 2015) the estimated health care costs<br \/>\nfor tobacco use between 2000 and 2012 in billions of dollars, in several countries,<br \/>\namounted to:<br \/>\na. USA 133<br \/>\nb. France 16.6<br \/>\nc. United Kingdom 9.5<br \/>\nd. China 6.2 (conservative estimates)<br \/>\ne. Canada 2.8<br \/>\n6. There is no single effective preventive intervention, but rather a combination of measures<br \/>\nsuch as smoking bans, penalties and fines, taxations, education, systematic and sustained<br \/>\noutreach campaigns, package labeling, and improved health literacy.<br \/>\n26<br \/>\nAppendix A: Summary Table of Evidence from Epidemiological Studies<br \/>\n27<br \/>\n28<br \/>\n29<br \/>\n30<br \/>\n31<br \/>\n32<br \/>\nAppendix B: Summary Table of Evidence from Interventional Studies<br \/>\n33<br \/>\n34<br \/>\n35<br \/>\nAppendix C: Health Effect of SHS in Adults<br \/>\nThe 2006 United States Surgeon General report found the following evidence for health effects<br \/>\nof SHS exposure in adults<br \/>\nSufficient evidence to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 lung cancer<br \/>\n\uf0b7 an increased risk of coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality<br \/>\n\uf0b7 odor annoyance<br \/>\n\uf0b7 nasal irritation<br \/>\nSuggestive evidence but not sufficient to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 breast cancer<br \/>\n\uf0b7 an increased risk of stroke<br \/>\n\uf0b7 atherosclerosis<br \/>\n\uf0b7 acute respiratory symptoms; cough, wheeze, chest tightness, difficulty breathing<br \/>\n\uf0b7 chronic respiratory symptoms<br \/>\n\uf0b7 acute decline in lung function in persons with asthma<br \/>\n\uf0b7 small decrement in lung function in the general population<br \/>\n\uf0b7 adult-onset asthma<br \/>\n\uf0b7 worsening of asthma control<br \/>\n\uf0b7 risk for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease<br \/>\nInadequate evidence to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma<br \/>\n\uf0b7 risk of cervical cancer<br \/>\n\uf0b7 acute decline in lung function in health population<br \/>\n\uf0b7 accelerated decline in lung function<br \/>\n\uf0b7 morbidity in persons with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease<br \/>\n36<br \/>\nAppendix D: Health Effects of SHS in Infants and Children<br \/>\nThe 2006 United States Surgeon General report found the following evidence for health effects<br \/>\nof SHS exposure in infants and children<br \/>\nSufficient evidence to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Sudden Infant Death Syndrome<br \/>\n\uf0b7 low birth weight<br \/>\n\uf0b7 lower respiratory illnesses (the greatest risks found among children with smoking<br \/>\nmother)<br \/>\n\uf0b7 middle ear disease, including acute and recurrent otitis media and chronic middle ear<br \/>\neffusion.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Cough. phlegm, wheeze, asthma, and breathlessness among school age children<br \/>\n\uf0b7 chronic adverse effects on lung function throughout childhood<br \/>\nSuggestive evidence but not sufficient to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 preterm delivery<br \/>\n\uf0b7 childhood leukemia, lymphomas, and brain tumor<br \/>\n\uf0b7 natural history of middle ear effusion<br \/>\n\uf0b7 onset of childhood asthma<br \/>\nInadequate evidence to infer a causal relationship between SHS and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 female fertility<br \/>\n\uf0b7 spontaneous abortion<br \/>\n\uf0b7 neonatal mortality<br \/>\n\uf0b7 congenital malformations<br \/>\n\uf0b7 cognitive functioning<br \/>\n\uf0b7 behavioral problems<br \/>\n\uf0b7 height\/growth<br \/>\n\uf0b7 an increased risk of adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy<br \/>\n\uf0b7 risk of immunoglobulin E-mediated allergy<br \/>\n37<br \/>\nAppendix E: WMA 2011 Statement on Health Hazards of Tobacco Products and Tobacco-<br \/>\nDerived Products<br \/>\n[www.wma.net\/en\/30publications\/&#8230;\/h4\/]<br \/>\nAdopted by the 40th<br \/>\nWorld Medical Assembly, Vienna, Austria, September 1988<br \/>\nand amended by the 49th<br \/>\nWMA General Assembly, Hamburg, Germany, November 1997<br \/>\nand the 58th<br \/>\nWMA General Assembly, Copenhagen, Denmark, October 2007<br \/>\nand the 62nd<br \/>\nWMA General Assembly, Montevideo, Uruguay, October 2011<br \/>\nPREAMBLE<br \/>\nMore than one in three adults worldwide (more than 1.1 billion people) smokes, 80 percent of<br \/>\nwhom live in low- and middle-income countries.

Five million deaths<br \/>\noccur worldwide each year due to tobacco use. If current smoking patterns continue, it will cause<br \/>\nsome 10 million deaths each year by 2020 and 70 percent of these will occur in developing<br \/>\ncountries. Tobacco use was responsible for 100 million deaths in the 20th century and will kill<br \/>\none billion people in the 21st century unless effective interventions are implemented.<br \/>\nFurthermore, secondhand smoke &#8211; which contains more than 4000 chemicals, including more<br \/>\nthan 50 carcinogens and many other toxins &#8211; causes lung cancer, heart disease, and other<br \/>\nillnesses in nonsmokers.<br \/>\nThe global public health community, through the World Health Organization (WHO), has<br \/>\nexpressed increasing concern about the alarming trends in tobacco use and tobacco-attributable<br \/>\ndisease. As of 20 September 2007, 150 countries had ratified the Framework Convention on<br \/>\nTobacco Control (FCTC), whose provisions call for ratifying countries to take strong action<br \/>\nagainst tobacco use by increasing tobacco taxation, banning tobacco advertising and promotion,<br \/>\nprohibiting smoking in public places and worksites, implementing effective health warnings on<br \/>\ntobacco packaging, improving access to tobacco cessation treatment services and medications,<br \/>\nregulating the contents and emissions of tobacco products, and eliminating illegal trade in<br \/>\ntobacco products.<br \/>\nExposure to secondhand smoke occurs anywhere smoking is permitted: homes, workplaces, and<br \/>\nother public places. According to the WHO, some 200,000 workers die each year due to<br \/>\nexposure to smoke at work, while about 700 million children, around half the world&rsquo;s total,<br \/>\nbreathe air polluted by tobacco smoke, particularly in the home. Based on the evidence of three<br \/>\nrecent comprehensive reports (the International Agency for Research on Cancer&rsquo;s Monograph 83,<br \/>\nTobacco Smoke and Involuntary Smoking; the United States Surgeon General&rsquo;s Report on The<br \/>\nHealth Consequences of Involuntary Exposure to Tobacco Smoke; and the California<br \/>\nEnvironmental Protection Agency&rsquo;s Proposed Identification of Environmental Tobacco Smoke as<br \/>\n38<br \/>\na Toxic Air Contaminant), on May 29, 2007, the WHO called for a global ban on smoking at<br \/>\nwork and in enclosed public places.<br \/>\nThe tobacco industry claims that it is committed to determining the scientific truth about the<br \/>\nhealth effects of tobacco, both by conducting internal research and by funding external research<br \/>\nthrough jointly funded industry programs. However, the industry has consistently denied,<br \/>\nwithheld, and suppressed information concerning the deleterious effects of tobacco smoking. For<br \/>\nmany years the industry claimed that there was no conclusive proof that smoking tobacco causes<br \/>\ndiseases such as cancer and heart disease. It has also claimed that nicotine is not addictive. These<br \/>\nclaims have been repeatedly refuted by the global medical profession, which because of this is<br \/>\nalso resolutely opposed to the massive advertising campaigns mounted by the industry and<br \/>\nbelieves strongly that the medical associations themselves must provide a firm leadership role in<br \/>\nthe campaign against tobacco.<br \/>\nThe tobacco industry and its subsidiaries have for many years supported research and the<br \/>\npreparation of reports on various aspects of tobacco and health. By being involved in such<br \/>\nactivities, individual researchers and\/or their organizations give the tobacco industry an<br \/>\nappearance of credibility even in cases where the industry is not able to use the results directly in<br \/>\nits marketing. Such involvement also raises major conflicts of interest with the goals of health<br \/>\npromotion.<br \/>\nRECOMMENDATIONS<br \/>\nThe WMA urges the national medical associations and all physicians to take the following<br \/>\nactions to help reduce the health hazards related to tobacco use:<br \/>\n1. Adopt a policy position opposing smoking and the use of tobacco products, and publicize<br \/>\nthe policy so adopted.<br \/>\n2. Prohibit smoking, including use of smokeless tobacco, at all business, social, scientific,<br \/>\nand ceremonial meetings of the National Medical Association, in line with the decision of<br \/>\nthe World Medical Association to impose a similar ban at all its own such meetings.<br \/>\n3. Develop, support, and participate in programs to educate the profession and the public<br \/>\nabout the health hazards of tobacco use (including addiction) and exposure to secondhand<br \/>\nsmoke. Programs aimed at convincing and helping smokers and smokeless tobacco users<br \/>\nto cease the use of tobacco products and programs for non-smokers and non-users of<br \/>\nsmokeless tobacco products aimed at avoidance are both important.<br \/>\n4. Encourage individual physicians to be role models (by not using tobacco products) and<br \/>\nspokespersons for the campaign to educate the public about the deleterious health effects<br \/>\nof tobacco use and the benefits of tobacco-use cessation. Ask all medical schools,<br \/>\nbiomedical research institutions, hospitals, and other health care facilities to prohibit<br \/>\nsmoking, use of smokeless tobacco on their premises.<br \/>\n5. Introduce or strengthen educational programs for medical students and physicians to<br \/>\nprepare them to identify and treat tobacco dependence in their patients.<br \/>\n6. Support widespread access to evidence-based treatment for tobacco dependence &#8211;<br \/>\nincluding counseling and pharmacotherapy &#8211; through individual patient encounters,<br \/>\ncessation classes, telephone quit-lines, web-based cessation services, and other<br \/>\nappropriate means.<br \/>\n39<br \/>\n7. Develop or endorse a clinical practice guideline on the treatment of tobacco use and<br \/>\ndependence.<br \/>\n8. Join the WMA in urging the World Health Organization to add tobacco cessation<br \/>\nmedications with established efficacy to the WHO&rsquo;s Model List of Essential Medicines.<br \/>\n9. Refrain from accepting any funding or educational materials from the tobacco industry,<br \/>\nand to urge medical schools, research institutions, and individual researchers to do the<br \/>\nsame, in order to avoid giving any credibility to that industry.<br \/>\n10. Urge national governments to ratify and fully implement the Framework Convention on<br \/>\nTobacco Control in order to protect public health.<br \/>\n11. Speak out against the shift in focus of tobacco marketing from developed to less<br \/>\ndeveloped nations and urge national governments to do the same.<br \/>\n12. Advocate the enactment and enforcement of laws that:<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Provide for comprehensive regulation of the manufacture, sale, distribution, and<br \/>\npromotion of tobacco and tobacco-derived products, including the specific provisions<br \/>\nlisted below.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Require written and pictorial warnings about health hazards to be printed on all<br \/>\npackages n which tobacco products are sold and in all advertising and promotional<br \/>\nmaterials for tobacco products. Such warnings should be prominent and should refer<br \/>\nthose interested in quitting to available telephone quit-lines, websites, or other<br \/>\nsources of assistance.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Prohibit smoking in all enclosed public places (including health care facilities,<br \/>\nschools, and education facilities), workplaces (including restaurants, bars and<br \/>\nnightclubs) and public transport. Mental health and chemical dependence treatment<br \/>\ncenters should also be smoke-free. Smoking in prisons should not be permitted.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Ban all advertising and promotion of tobacco and tobacco-derived products.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 encourage the development of plain packaging legislation<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Prohibit the sale, distribution, and accessibility of cigarettes, and other tobacco<br \/>\nproducts to children and adolescents. Ban the production, distribution and sale of<br \/>\ncandy products that depict or resemble tobacco products.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 prohibit smoking on all commercial airline flights within national borders and on all<br \/>\ninternational commercial airline flights, and prohibit the sale of tax-free tobacco<br \/>\nproducts at airports and all other locations.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Prohibit all government subsidies for tobacco and tobacco-derived products.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Provide for research into the prevalence of tobacco use and the effects of tobacco<br \/>\nproducts on the health status of the population.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Prohibit the promotion, distribution, and sale of any new forms of tobacco products<br \/>\nthat are not currently available.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Increase taxation of tobacco products, using the increased revenues for prevention<br \/>\nprograms, evidence-based cessation programs and services, and other health care<br \/>\nmeasures.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Curtail or eliminate illegal trade in tobacco products and the sale of smuggled tobacco<br \/>\nproducts.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Help tobacco farmers switch to alternative crops.<br \/>\n\uf0b7 Urge governments to exclude tobacco products from international trade agreements.<br \/>\n40<br \/>\n13. Recognize that tobacco use may lead to pediatric disease because of the harm done to<br \/>\nchildren caused by tobacco use and second-hand smoke exposure, the relationship of<br \/>\ntobacco use by children and exposure to adult tobacco use, and the existence of effective<br \/>\ninterventions to reduce tobacco use. Special efforts should be made by physicians to:<br \/>\n\uf0b7 provide tobacco-free environments for children<br \/>\n\uf0b7 target parents who smoke for tobacco cessation interventions<br \/>\n\uf0b7 promote programs that contribute to the prevention and decrease of tobacco use<br \/>\nby youth<br \/>\n\uf0b7 control access to and marketing of tobacco products, and<br \/>\n\uf0b7 make pediatric tobacco-control research a high priority<br \/>\n14.
