WHO promotes smoking ban

Yahoo! News - The World Health Organization or widely known as WHO urges countries to adopt smoking bans. They said that this is a big help in getting the users to quit and protect children from second hand smoke. WHO have suggested that there is enough evidence to prove that the bans will work without hurting businesses like restaurants and bars.

They said that if these policies can be implemented, there will be a broader smoke-free environment which is highly beneficial for everyone’s health. They added that some of the cities that adopted this scheme have dramatically decreased the number of patients who are admitted in hospitals and those who have died due to heart attacks.

If the scheme continues and becomes widely accepted, then the environment will be a lot cleaner and a lot more safe for children.
