Re: Anti-smoking ads


I am another ex smoker (1986 was my last) I had a particularly nasty chest infection and decided that was it - no more.

Not sure if the ads will make a difference to adult smokers who have probably seen or heard it before but either think it won't happen to me or don't want to know.

What I hope is that it will scare kids into either not starting or quitting. I think that is where we need to concentrate.

Wonder if health could do something in schools to hit it home ever harder.

Re: Anti-smoking ads


I really hope these adverts have an affect, especially on youngsters thinking about starting smoking. I have never smokeds and cannot see the attraction at all. Expensive, makes your clothes, hair and breath reek, and that's without the numerous smoking related health problems. When I was a Marie Curie nurse, I nursed a patient dying from smoking related lung cancer, her husband still smoked.
