Fresh’s Ailsa Rutter closes the day by bringing it back to the people behind the statistics.

It’s about reducing death and suffering, not just for people who smoke but also their loved ones.

Perceptions don’t seem to be affecting patterns of youth vaping…

Prof Jamie Brown outlines potential reasons for the discrepancy between estimates of smoking prevalence in the APS and Smoking Toolkit Study.
Changes in APS question wording may mean it’s missing a chunk of non-daily smoking - which has become more common.
