Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Reports (MMWRs)
Effect of Ending an Antitobacco Youth Campaign on Adolescent Susceptibility to Cigarette Smoking—Minnesota, 2002–2003
April 16, 2004 / Vol. 53 / No. 14
The April 16, 2004, issue of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC) Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR)
contains a report entitled, “Effect of Ending an Antitobacco Youth Campaign
on Adolescent Susceptibility to Cigarette Smoking—Minnesota, 2002–2003."
The findings in this report demonstrate the impact of eliminating a
Minnesota youth anti-tobacco campaign—only 6 months after that campaign
ended—and suggest that state cutbacks in anti-tobacco campaigns might
increase the susceptibility of young people to smoke, which is an important
predictor of adolescent tobacco use.
