Ekuphenduleni lokhu okutholakele, abacwaningi bayabuza " ukuzibophezela okuqinile okuvela kwabathatha izinqumo kodwa futhi okuvela emaqenjini okunakekela okuyisisekelo ukunikeza izindlela zokwelapha nokunikeza izeluleko zokuyeka ukubhema kubantu abanezifo zenhliziyo nemithambo yegazi”.
KODWA NGAPHEZU KWAMA-40% BACABANGA INYANGA YE-E-CIGARETTE IYALIMAZA!
Lokhu ukuhlaziya idatha evela ocwaningweni olukhulu lukazwelonke Ukuhlolwa Kwesibalo Sabantu Sokufunda Ngogwayi Nezempilo (PATH). Lokhu kuhlaziywa kwavumela abacwaningi ukuba baqhathanise amazinga okubhema ngokuhamba kwesikhathi phakathi kwabahlanganyeli abadala be-2.615 abanemilando yokuzibika yokuhlaselwa yinhliziyo, ukuhluleka kwenhliziyo, ukushaywa unhlangothi, noma esinye isifo senhliziyo. Laba bahlanganyeli baphothule izinhlolovo ezi-4 esikhathini sokulandelela seminyaka emi-5.
- Ekufakweni, okungukuthi ngo-2013, cishe ingxenye eyodwa kwezintathu yababambiqhaza (28,9%) bamemezele ukuthi bayabhema noma badle umkhiqizo kagwayi.
