A comic strip created by Titane Laurent for VISA Mauritius to promote having big graphic health warnings on cigarette packs

• Sigareth?

Loved it, Vinod.
How I wish I could frighten my daughter like that. Our govt is pushing for plain cigarette packs to start in the new year (I think). I like the idea of the rat poison ones. When the food items we buy have to list the contents on the packaging, why not cigarettes?
We have had graphic pictures on packs for a number of years now and a woman I know (middle aged) would only buy packs with warnings on the effects of smoking on pregnancy ~ she knew that wouldn't apply to her so she didn't have to be bothered!!!!! I suppose that indicates the warnings do have some effect.

Even though warning are provided people tend to buy it and even the shopkeepers don't stop selling this..

Tobacco wrapped inside the sigareth is very harmful and lead to mouth cancer.

Now a days more than 40% people are affected just because of smoking sigareth.But still instead of knowing also that it simply hazardous to their health they continue doing smoking.
