Solano County and all its cities earned grades of F in cigarette smoking rates and efforts to prevent exposure to secondhand smoke, according to an American Lung Association annual report. The failing grades for smoking rates and restrictions on smoking in public spots and housing areas are contained in the "State of Tobacco Control 2012" report.
In particular, the report looks at local policies that aim to reduce
smoking cheap Camel cigarettes in outdoor areas, housing, and the sale of tobacco products.
State law prevents indoor smoking in businesses, restaurants, schools and other facilities in Solano County.
However, the lung association's regional director of advocacy Serena Chen said Solano cities and the county have not followed through on tobacco control laws and regulations.
