Tobacco use continues to be the single most preventable cause of death for all groups in the United States, including Asian Americans (AAs) and Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders (NHPIs). Despite efforts in tobacco control over the past two decades, tobacco-related health disparities remain in some priority population groups, including AAs and NHPIs. This special supplement features strategies and promising practices for addressing the critical problem of tobacco in the AA and NHPI communities.
在美国,包括亚裔美国人(AAs)、夏威夷原住民和太平洋岛民(NHPIs)在内的所有群体中,吸烟仍然是唯一最可预防的死因。尽管在过去二十年里一直在努力控制烟草,但在一些重点人群中,包括亚裔美国人和夏威夷原住民及太平洋岛民,与烟草相关的健康差距依然存在。本期特刊介绍了应对亚裔美国人和夏威夷原住民及太平洋岛民社区中烟草这一关键问题的策略和有前景的做法。
