Belgi\u00eb kampt met een hoog rookpercentage, met 24% van de bevolking die momenteel rookt. Dit leidt jaarlijks tot ongeveer 14.000 sterfgevallen door roken.<\/p>\n<p>De Belgische regering streeft ernaar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vapingpost.com\/2023\/05\/26\/science-keeps-revealing-the-infectivity-of-vape-taxes\/\">verhoging van de tabaksaccijns<\/a>, met een prijsstijging van \u20ac 1 voor een pakje van 20 sigaretten, wat jaarlijks \u20ac 50 miljoen aan extra belastinginkomsten genereert. Door deze nieuwe regelgeving te handhaven, streeft de overheid naar een &quot;rookvrije generatie&quot;. De regelgeving zou op 1 januari 2025 in werking moeten treden en omvat forse boetes bij niet-naleving.<\/p>\n<p>Echter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciensano.be\/en\">Sciensano-onderzoek<\/a> suggereert dat Belgi\u00eb zijn rookreductiedoelstellingen waarschijnlijk niet zal halen. Bovendien bestaat er brede bezorgdheid dat prijsverhogingen Franse rokers niet zullen afschrikken. Ondanks deze deskundige meningen is Belgi\u00eb vastbesloten om door te gaan met de veranderingen.<\/p>\n<p>Lees de volledige tekst <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vapingpost.com\/2023\/11\/30\/will-belgiums-smoking-cessation-strategy-be-effective\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hier<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While amendments to Belgium&#8217;s current tobacco laws aim to reduce smoking rates, experts highlight that these are missing a crucial element.
