“Tobacco control advocacy is not without risks... Tobacco control advocates should be recognised as human rights defenders (HRDs).”

New commentary by TCRG's @brittakm.bsky.social and Kelsey Romeo-Stuppy from @ash.org argues that recognising #tobaccocontrol advocates as human rights defenders would provide them with better protection and align tobacco control with global human rights standards.

👉 Read: doi.org/10.1136/tc-2...
“Tobacco control has always been about defending the right to health, life, and dignity. Yet the advocates who lead this work often face threats without the recognition or protection afforded to other defenders of human rights.”

New research has uncovered the targeting of dental professions by tobacco company Philip Morris.

By targeting #dental professionals, Philip Morris is seeking to embed its own narratives into professional norms, continuing education, and patient care.

“It is essential to expose industry conduct in the dental space and to support professionals in critically assessing the evidence and motivations behind industry narratives...Big Tobacco’s ‘pseudo-transformation’ is not a public health initiative—it is a business strategy driven by profit.”

75 years this week since evidence confirming that smoking is lethal with Wynder & Graham’s landmark May 27, 1950 JAMA paper “Tobacco smoking as a possible etiologic factor in bronchiogenic carcinoma” then Doll & Hill’s historic September 30, 1950 BMJ “Smoking and carcinoma of the lung”.
