El D�a Mundial Sin Tabaco
El tabaco mata hasta la mitad de los fumadores. Sin embargo, se consume habitualmente en todo el mundo debido a que se vende a bajo precio, se comercializa de forma agresiva, no se toma conciencia sobre los peligros que entra�a y las pol�ticas p�blicas contra su consumo son incoherentes. Este a�o el D�a Mundial Sin Tabaco ser� el 31 de mayo y en recognici�n de esta campa�a global estamos ofreciendo folletos gratuitos. Para recibir copia gratuita de cualquiera de estos folletos contacte a HC DrugFree al info@hcdrugfree.org o al 443-325-0040 (se puede dejar mensaje en espa�ol).
