There are several dozens of diseases, the course of which is exacerbated by the addiction to smoking. Most of them are directly related to the condition of the lungs and heart. Scientific research has proved the connection of a bad habit with oncology. The International Day of Quitting, which is celebrated on May 31 , is an attempt by the World Health Organization to shake society, turn it face to a healthy lifestyle.
The role of educational work on the International Day of Quitting
Uncontrolled vices in their youth echo in the middle and old age, when problems with blood vessels or potency begin. People quit smoking , but it is often too late. The most sad thing is that with a cigarette in the hands of schoolchildren and women, not considering this a serious problem. Each of the smokers, without thinking about the consequences, leaves the genetics broken to their generation, wondering why the current youth is weaker than their parents.
The activities that take place on the day of smoking cessation are of a preventive and educational nature. On television, we see, in a way, anti-tobacco advertising. Health care workers deliver lectures in educational institutions, at enterprises and on radio, memos and articles are printed at the state level, sanitary bulletins are issued.
Each of us recognizes the fact that prohibitions do not always achieve the desired result. The best agitation in the image of those who quit smoking works best. Sometimes a couple of minutes on the air of such a person acts better than a hour lecture. A huge role is played by help centers, which, unfortunately, not all are available. People overcome dependence only when they realize that smoking is not only not fashionable, but also harmful. In addition, no less than the smoker himself, those who are near suffer, especially children.
