The United States government has a plan in place to reduce tobacco use to the point that it is no longer a public health problem. The first objective is aimed at tobacco use prevalence. Based on the meaning of the word "prevalence," which of the following could be the first objective of this plan?

a. Adopt policies that increase access, affordability, and use of smoking cessation services
b. Establish policies that reduce exposure of children and adults to secondhand smoke
c. Implement policies that reduce tobacco use and initiation among youth and adults
d. Launch policies that increase the cost of tobacco and restrict tobacco advertising

A 2012 report from the U.S. Surgeon General stated: "Another common practice is strategically locating tobacco-related marketing materials where young children will be exposed to them. Tobacco industry executives acknowledge that products and advertising should be placed at eye level (Pollay 2007), but in California, 48% of stores had at least one cigarette marketing item at or below 3 feet from the floor (Feighery et al. 2001)." It was also noted that 25% of cigarette displays were next to candy. In addition, a national study found that about one-third of the stores had tobacco ads at low heights. After California banned counter displays, some stores place cigarettes in a see-through display so product brands could still be seen.

What is the main reason that states like California ban counter displays of tobacco products?

a. To decrease opportunities for the shoplifting of these high-revenue items
b. To discourage underage tobacco use by limiting the advertisement and product placement
c. To ensure children don't accidentally purchase cigarettes thinking they are candy
d. To punish cigarette companies by hiding their products from the public

Which of the following is most likely to result from smoking cigarettes?

a. Brain damage
b. Liver failure
c. Lung disease
d. Stomach infection

Some states restrict the use of cigarettes in restaurants and other public buildings. What is the aim of this type of government regulation?

a. To protect the public and store patrons who prefer to avoid secondhand smoke
b. To provide secure locations for smokers who want to avoid nonsmokers
c. To protect the potential sales of restaurant and business owners
d. To provide air quality in public facilities that exceeds federal mandates

Answer 2

d. Launch policies that increase the cost of tobacco and restrict tobacco advertising.

b. To discourage underage tobacco use by limiting the advertisement and product placement.

c. Lung disease

a. To protect the public and store patrons who prefer to avoid secondhand smoke

a. Asthma attacks

Step-by-step explanation:

If the policy wants to reduce use prevalence of smoking, this means that it wants to decrease the use of tobacco among the public. One way to do this would be through the use of policies that increase the cost of tobacco and restrict advertising.

The main purpose of banning counter displays of tobacco products is that the government wants minors to have less access to tobacco, as well as less interest in it.

Lung disease is the most common outcome from smoking tobacco. Tobacco can also cause damage to other respiratory organs, such as mouth and throat.

The main purpose of such regulation is to allow people who do not want to be around smoke to avoid it.

One of the consequences that second-hand smoke can have on children is that of increasing their risk of asthma.
