纽约烟草管制经费远远没有达到疾控中心的建议,因此吸烟率有可能上升,每年死亡28 000人。 New York’s tobacco control funding falls far short of CDC recommendations, risking a rise in smoking and 28,000 annual deaths.

根据美国肺病协会的一份新报告,随着联邦烟草预防方案被削减,纽约面临着日益严重的公共卫生风险。 New York faces growing public health risks as federal tobacco prevention programs are cut, according to a new American Lung Association report. 尽管自2000年以来,成年人吸烟率下降到9.9%,青年吸烟率下降到3.5%,但纽约获得“F”用于烟草控制资金,仅支出3 920万美元,远远低于疾控中心提出的2.03亿美元建议,尽管烟草收入超过15亿美元。 Despite a drop in smoking rates to 9.9% among adults and 3.5% among youth since 2000, New York received an “F” for funding tobacco control, spending only $39.2 million—far below the CDC’s $203 million recommendation—despite collecting over $1.5 billion in tobacco revenue. 联邦的倒退,包括“前吸烟者”运动的结束和对主要卫生局的削减,削弱了全国的进展。 Federal rollbacks, including the end of the “Tips From Former Smokers” campaign and cuts to key health offices, have weakened national progress. 报告敦促纽约增加资金,堵塞烟草香味销售的漏洞,扩大戒烟资源,以防止烟草使用量可能增加,并防止该州每年发生28 000多起与烟草有关的死亡事件。 The report urges New York to boost funding, close loopholes in flavored tobacco sales, and expand quitting resources to protect against a potential rise in tobacco use and prevent over 28,000 annual tobacco-related deaths in the state.
