WHO's Stubborn Anti-Science Stance on Smoking Alternatives: A Disturbing Trend
Growing evidence supports the effectiveness of reduced-risk products to help smokers quit. The World Health Organization's (WHO) resistance to this approach appears desperate and harmful, as seen in a recent speech by Adriana Blanco Marquizo praising anti-tobacco youth groups. The WHO's biased stance against harm reduction, evident at the recent COP10 conference, demonstrates a troubling trend of valuing ideology over public health outcomes. Misinformation spread by WHO officials undermines trust and perpetuates unwarranted fears about reduced-risk nicotine products.
