Increasing taxes on tobacco products discourages young people from taking up smoking and encourages current smokers to reduce use or quit altogether. Tobacco taxes are a direct route to preventing cancer, stroke and disease – and to saving lives.
提高對菸草產品的徵稅可阻遏年輕人吸菸，並鼓勵現有吸菸者減少吸菸或完全戒菸。菸草稅是預防癌症、中風和疾病乃至拯救生命的直接途徑。
