The Lancet Commission advocates for war on tobacco in developing nations

Developing countries told 'tax tobacco to save lives'

Grand convergence is possible
[...] there is a "once in human history" chance to wipe out health disparities between nations.

Our report emphasises that tobacco taxation is the single most important public health intervention.

Whereas all this sounds pretty benign and reasonable, there's great potential for vaping to be caught in the crossfire.

Thanks for the story. Considering the people/organizations involved it looks to me like they are just setting up another world bureaucracy, just another way to funnel money that is supposed to help people be healthier but actually does nothing but pad the pockets of those running the programs. JMHO.
