This week I had the honor of giving a speech at a California Tobacco Control Program event. My speech was titled “Understanding how tobacco use and other risk behaviors are linked is crucial for the health of California.”
In this talk I presented some preliminary research we had done showing that there is a statistically significant difference between smokers and non-smokers when it comes to engaging in unhealthy behaviors.
