Experts issue warning after study's grim discovery on cigarette filters: 'In the interests of public health' Researchers argue that cigarette filters originated simply as a marketing ploy and may actually do more harm than good.

📊 ASH data shows that only 25% of adults know the truth about cigarette filters – that they provide no health benefit to people who smoke

As our CE @hazelcheeseman.bsky.social says, filters are a “marketing con to keep people smoking, protecting tobacco industry profits” 🚬

1/2 Smoking costs England £43.7B a year - harming families, communities, our economy & NHS.
In the North East alone, it costs nearly £2B yearly, while Big Tobacco profits nearly £1B in the UK.
This has to stop.
