Den 27.-29. oktober m\u00f8des Verdenssundhedsorganisationens regionale komit\u00e9 for Europa til sin 76. session for at diskutere sin nye sundhedsstrategi. M\u00e5let med m\u00f8det var at diskutere planer for, hvordan man kan reducere byrden af ikke-smitsomme sygdomme (NCD'er).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Vigtigheden af dette m\u00e5l er ubestridelig. Men hvor overbevisende er WHO's foresl\u00e5ede strategi?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

De <\/span>handlingsplan<\/span><\/a> der blev offentliggjort f\u00f8r m\u00f8det, s\u00e6tter tonen for, hvad der skal diskuteres i udvalget. Desv\u00e6rre kommer det ikke som nogen overraskelse, at tobaksskadesreduktionsmilj\u00f8et har ringe grund til at forvente, at deres argumenter vil blive taget i betragtning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Det f\u00f8rste r\u00f8de flag i dokumentet er, at det grupperer tobaks- og nikotinprodukter under \u00e9t, og dermed ikke anerkender forskellene mellem br\u00e6ndbare cigaretter og mindre skadelige nikotinalternativer. Det lader til, at tendensen til at flytte kampen mod forbr\u00e6nding hen imod en kamp mod alle nikotinprodukter igen er p\u00e5 dagsordenen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Problemet med denne tilgang er, at man ikke anerkender forskellene i risiko mellem disse produkter. S\u00e5 hvad siger videnskaben?<\/span><\/p>\n

Der er allerede tilg\u00e6ngelig dokumentation for forskellene mellem rygning og mindre risikable nikotinprodukter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Studier <\/span><\/a>af rygere, der skifter helt til vaping, viser betydelige reduktioner i eksponering for skadelige kemikalier. Nogle biomark\u00f8rer blandt eksklusive vapers er betydeligt lavere end hos rygere og t\u00e6ttere p\u00e5 de niveauer, der findes hos aldrig-rygere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Det britiske kontor for sundhedsforbedring og uligheder\u2019<\/span> uafh\u00e6ngige rapporter<\/span><\/a>, baseret p\u00e5 over 100 unders\u00f8gelser fra King's College London, viser, at vaping udg\u00f8r v\u00e6sentligt f\u00e6rre sundhedsrisici end rygning. Vaping er ogs\u00e5 et af de mest almindeligt anvendte hj\u00e6lpemidler til rygestop i England.<\/span><\/p>\n

N\u00e5r det kommer til produkter som nikotinposer, tyder forskning p\u00e5, at de er blandt de <\/span>orale nikotinprodukter med den laveste risiko<\/span><\/a> med hensyn til eksponering for giftstoffer,<\/span> med niveauer af skadelige og potentielt skadelige ingredienser, der er langt lavere end i cigaretter og ligner dem, der findes i nikotinudskiftningsterapier (NRT'er).<\/span><\/p>\n

En opdateret<\/span> Cochrane-anmeldelsen <\/span><\/a>fandt ud af, at nikotindampning hj\u00e6lper flere mennesker med at holde op med at ryge end traditionel nikotinudskiftningsterapi.<\/span><\/p>\n

S\u00e5 hvorfor gruppere produkter, der kan hj\u00e6lpe rygere med at holde op, med br\u00e6ndbare cigaretter og ignorere deres potentielle fordele?<\/span><\/p>\n

Der er masser af videnskabelig evidens, der underst\u00f8tter behovet for at skelne mellem br\u00e6ndbare cigaretter og mindre risikable nikotinprodukter, s\u00e5som vapes og poser. Men hvad g\u00f8r WHO i stedet?<\/span><\/p>\n

I den ovenn\u00e6vnte handlingsplan angiver WHO, at tobak er ansvarlig for 1,2 millioner d\u00f8dsfald \u00e5rligt i WHO's europ\u00e6iske region. N\u00e5r det kommer til nyere nikotinprodukter, giver den dog ikke specifik dokumentation for deres indvirkning p\u00e5 ikke-smitsomme sygdomme.<\/span><\/p>\n

Der er en klar forskel mellem den videnskabelige evidens og den tilgang, som WHO anvender. Hvorfor ikke i det mindste give plads til diskussionen i stedet for at behandle skadesreduktion som et tabu?<\/span><\/p>\n

Is\u00e6r n\u00e5r WHO's rammekonvention om tobakskontrol (FCTC) selv inkluderer skadesreduktion i sin definition af tobakskontrol under <\/span>Artikel 1, litra d)<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Det er netop derfor, at WVA lancerede sin <\/span>\u201c"Uh\u00f8rte stemmer"\u201d<\/span><\/a> kampagne som svar p\u00e5 COP11 i 2025. Det er simpelthen uretf\u00e6rdigt at holde forbrugere og reduktion af tobaksskader ude af folkesundhedsdiskussioner om nikotin, is\u00e6r n\u00e5r der er s\u00e5 meget videnskabelig dokumentation tilg\u00e6ngelig.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At ignorere den tilg\u00e6ngelige evidens og n\u00e6gte \u00e5bent at diskutere reduktion af tobaksskader vil ikke bidrage til at reducere rygerelaterede sygdomme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hvis WHO oprigtigt \u00f8nsker at forbedre folkesundheden, b\u00f8r den bev\u00e6ge sig v\u00e6k fra sin forbudsorienterede tilgang, anerkende forskellene mellem nikotinprodukter og give skadesreduktion en plads i sin strategi.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
