Ohio [US]: According to a recent study, the 2020 European menthol cigarette ban increased the likelihood that menthol smokers will give up smoking. This finding supports earlier Canadian research on the beneficial public health effects of the menthol cigarette ban.
Researchers from Maastricht University, the Trimbos Institute in the Netherlands, the International Tobacco Policy Evaluation Project (ITC Project) at the University of Waterloo in Canada, and Christina Kyriakos from Imperial College London conducted the study under the direction of Christina Kyriakos.
