Health Promotion Bureau Dir Dr. Beverly Ho on No Smoking Month: Ang tobacco, hindi lang siya masama sa health ng tao kundi pati sa environment. This year, ang special na programa natin ay ang no smoking in beaches. Ang first LGU natin ay Aklan at inilunsad na ito sa Boracay(1/2)
Dr. Ho: We're hoping many other LGUs will follow suit. (2/2)
Dr. Ho says around 110,000 Filipinos die every year from tobacco-related illnesses: That's essentially 300 namamatay araw-araw.
Dr. Ho: Hindi po ganon kadali yung proseso ng pag-quit (ng smoking) dahil may addictive properties ang nicotine, so maganda po na meron kayong professional.
Dr. Ho says DOH also doesn't recommend shifting to vape: May addictive properties yung vape at nakakakita narin tayo ng napakaraming kaso na hindi rin po ito harmless.
Dr. Ho: Sa mga studies, pag nagv-vape, may increased risk of COVID-19 acquisition, may risk na bumalik sa tobacco, at mataas din ang chance ng excessive alcohol intake.
Dr. Ho: Instead, we recommend our current smokers to commit to quit, and that is through our DOH Quitline 1558.
Dr. Ho reiterates the DOH wants the vape bill to be vetoed by President Rodrigo Duterte.
