Vaping may be slowing Australia’s #TobaccoControl progress, say PHAA members Michelle Jongenelis & @mikedaube.bsky.social in @mja.com.au

They argue AUS must continue "to protect new generations from the harms being perpetrated by predatory industries".

Kopftuchverbot?
Phaa!

Ich will eine Dirndlpflicht, darunter tu ichs nicht!

Integriert euch gefälligst, dann passt ihr auch ins Stadtbild
Wenn die #SPÖ da mitgeht, dann kann ich gar nicht ausdrücken, was ich den Genossinnen alles wünsche. /cc @andibabler.at @spoe.at
Wenn es nach der Integrationsministerin geht, soll das Kopftuchverbot für junge Schülerinnen mittels Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit in Verfassungsrang gehoben werden – um es vor einer (um ehrlich zu sein: wahrscheinlichen) Aufhebung durch den Verfassungsgerichtshof zu schützen.

@publichealthaus.bsky.social strongly advocates condoms as harm reduction response to STIs & unwanted pregnancies ie never let best be enemy of good. So how come PHAA hates vaping - a HR response to smoking - which kills 21,000 Australians/year? @algore09algor.bsky.social @ianamossyd.bsky.social
