Study: 57% of Americans support banning the sale of tobacco products

Date:

The study was conducted in 2021 by asking about 6,500 people who participated in it about their support or rejection of measures to limit the circulation of tobacco products.

A study conducted by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that 57% of Americans support banning the sale of tobacco products.

The study was conducted in 2021 by asking about 6,500 people who participated in it about their support or rejection of measures to limit the circulation of tobacco products.

Last year, US President Joe Biden’s administration proposed banning the sale of cigarettes with special flavors such as mint and fruit.

It also suggested forcing the tobacco industry to limit the amount of nicotine in cigarettes sold in the United States to non-addictive levels.

“These findings could inform federal and local efforts to ban all sales of tobacco products, including menthol cigarettes, reduce tobacco use and promote health equity,” the study authors wrote.

Despite the study’s findings, many Americans still support the sale of cigarettes.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposal to ban the sale of flavored tobacco and e-cigarettes in the state sparked a heated debate on the issue.
