World No Tobacco Day
May 31 is World no Tobacco Day. Tobacco use is one of the leading preventable causes of death.
- Tobacco kills up to half of its users.
Tobacco kills nearly six million people each year, of whom more than 5 million are users and ex users and more than 600 000 are nonsmokers exposed to second-hand smoke.
If you don’t smoke – don’t start!
If you do smoke – QUIT!
