在加利福尼亚和美国,吸烟仍然是可预防的主要死亡原因。虽然在过去25年中取得了重大进展,但人们日益认识到需要大规模努力减少烟草使用。鉴于国家卫生机构在实施公共卫生计划方面的核心作用,以及它们能够接触到烟草使用和烟草相关疾病风险最高的许多群体的能力,它们面临着一项重大挑战。本文描述了加州卫生服务部在1988年《烟草税与健康促进法》(第99号提案)的支持下,在全州范围内开展的一项公共资助的反烟草运动的发展和运作情况,该运动将该州销售的每包香烟的消费税提高了25美分。对正在发生的执行和业务问题的讨论可能与其他地方类似运动的规划有关。
Cigarette smoking continues to be the leading preventable cause of death in California and the United States. Although substantial progress has been made over the past 25 years, there is growing recognition of the need for large-scale efforts to reduce tobacco use. Given their central roles in implementing public health programs and their ability to reach many of the groups most at risk of tobacco use uptake and tobacco-related disease, state health agencies have an important challenge before them. This article describes the development and operation of a statewide, publicly funded anti-tobacco use campaign currently undertaken by the California Department of Health Services under the auspices of the state''s Tobacco Tax and Health Promotion Act of 1988 (Proposition 99), which increased excise taxes on cigarettes by 25 cents per pack sold in the state. A discussion of problems in implementation and operation being incurred may be relevant to the planning of similar campaigns elsewhere.
