PUBLIC HEALTH RESPONSE TO TOBACCO USE IN UTAH
Utah has the lowest cigarette smoking rates in the country. There is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke. It causes stroke, lung cancer, and coronary heart disease in adults. Utah implemented a comprehensive smoke-free law prohibiting smoking in all indoor areas of workplaces, restaurants, and bars in 2009. Since that law was enacted, Utah has continued to inform efforts to protect residents from exposure to secondhand smoke. Upon request, the state provides research, data and analysis, and scientific consultation to communities, multiunit housing operators, hospitals, businesses, and colleges and universities that want to protect residents from secondhand smoke. Currently, there are more than 35,000 smoke-free housing units in 18 Utah counties. Further, the state has developed a toolkit and signage to assist communities/property management companies that voluntarily adopt smoke-free housing.
