Ngo-Agasti 4, i-2017, i-US Food and Drug Administration okanye i-FDA yazisa ukuba ifuna ukunciphisa inqanaba elisemthethweni le-nicotine kwi-cigarettes ukwenzela ukulwa nokutshaya. Injongo kukunciphisa umngcipheko wokuba likhoboka leentshayi. Ekugqibeleni, iimveliso zecuba ziya kulawulwa ngcono.
IQHINGA ELITSHA LOKUCHASELA ICUBA
Kwi-FDA, ukunciphisa idosi ye-nicotine yemidiza kuyakunciphisa kakhulu umngcipheko wokuba likhoboka kule mveliso. Lo mxholo ubaluleke ngokwesicwangciso-qhinga xa kujongwa ukubaluleka kwecuba kwezoqoqosho nezempilo e-United States. Enyanisweni, icuba lixabisa phantse iirandi ezingama-300 ezigidi yaye libangela ukufa kwabantu abangaphezu kwama-475 000 nyaka ngamnye.
Ukongezelela, malunga nama-2 500 abantu abaselula bafunda ukutshaya yonke imihla eUnited States. Ngokufanayo, i-90% yabantu abatshayayo kweli lizwe baqala ngaphambi kokuba babe neminyaka eyi-18. Ke ngoko, umngcipheko wokuba likhoboka lezizukulwana ezizayo kufuneka uncitshiswe kangangoko kwaye abantu abatshayayo abakhotyokisiweyo kufuneka bancedwe ukuba bayeke ukutshaya kwixesha eliphakathi nelide.
Enyanisweni, eli linyathelo lokuqala kuphela kwisicwangciso se-FDA sokulawula zonke iimveliso zecuba. Umlinganiselo uya kwandiselwa kwiincasa ezisetyenziswa ngabavelisi abathile becuba ukuze kujongwe abaphulaphuli abasebatsha. UMateyu Myers, uMongameli we I-Compaign yaBantwana abangaXubayo, ibiza umlinganiselo ngesibindi kunye nendlela ebanzi.
UMLINGANISELO ONGABEYIMVELISO NGOKUTSHO PR DAUTZENBERG
Uninzi olukhulu lokufa okunxulumene necuba kunye ne-pathologies kubangelwa kumlutha wecuba ngokutsho Scott Gottlieb, Ugqirha kunye noMlawuli we-FDA. Ngaphezu koko, icuba okwangoku sesona siphumo sisemthethweni somthengi esibangela ukufa kwesiqingatha sabantu abasisebenzisayo ixesha elide.
Xa kuthelekiswa namanyathelo esithethe okuchasa ukutshaya afana namaphulo okuthintela ukutshaya, isigqibo se-FDA sokuthoba inqanaba elisemthethweni lenikotini kwicuba sibonakala sisintsha. Noko ke, ayithethi ngamxhelo-mnye. Ukwenzela i UNjingalwazi Bertrand Dautzenberg, ugqirha wemiphunga kwisibhedlele sasePitié Salpêtrière, idosi ye-nicotine encitshisiweyo iya kukhuthaza ngakumbi ukwamkelwa kwecuba lokuqala phakathi kwabantu abatsha.
Ngaphezu koko, umlinganiselo ofanayo sele ubonakalisile ukuba awusebenzi kwaye uyingozi. Ezi ziquka imidiza ekhaphukhaphu ekumele ukuba inenikotini kunye netha ngeepesenti ezisezantsi. Ingxelo yeWorld Health Organization yabonisa ngowama-2006 ukuba imidiza encinane ayinayo nayiphi na ingenelo yempilo xa ithelekiswa nemidiza eqhelekileyo.
