以年轻人为对象的香型香烟令人担忧

在经历了多年吸烟人数持续下降以后，烟草工业试图卷土重来。尽管有教育，警告，社会关注，销售税等多重因素制约，年轻人这个消费群体还是被新型的带有各种香型的烟草产品看好成为其推销市场。

滑铁卢大学公共健康学院的 Stephen Manske 说尽管经历了这些年烟草消费的持续下降，这些产品（例如 cigarillo 一种用烟草叶卷制的香烟，和 e-cigarette 电子香烟）会给这个进展带来威胁。

Flavoured tobacco aimed at youth worries experts, educators

WATERLOO REGION — After years of steady decline, the tobacco industry is looking for a comeback with new spin on an old vice.

The youth market, despite awareness programs, education, taxes and the social stigma, has become a targeted consumer group with new tobacco flavours and varieties.

Stephen Manske, a University of Waterloo scientist at the Propel Centre for Population Health Impact and school of public health and health systems explained, "Overall tobacco use is continuing to decline … but our concern is that it's hitting a bottoming out point, so those products (such as cigarillos and e-cigarettes) are undermining progress."
