The World Health Organization has welcomed new restrictions on tobacco advertising that took effect in China recently.
A World Health Organization representative in China says the organization strongly supports the introduction of new restrictions on tobacco advertising contained in China's revised Advertising Law which took effect recently.
Bernhard Schwartlnder said banning all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship is one of the most cost-effective measures governments can take to protect the public from the harm of addiction to tobacco use.
From September 1st, tobacco product advertisements have been prohibited in China's mass media, public places, on public transport and outdoors. Distribution of any form of tobacco advertising to minors is also banned. Previously, billboard advertising and advertising in some public places was allowed.
China is the world's largest producer and consumer of tobacco products. There are more than 300 million smokers in the country. More than 1 million people die from tobacco-related illnesses annually, around 3,000 people every day. In addition, more than 700 million people are routinely exposed to second-hand smoke, which kills 100,000 people a year.

Two leading transplant scientists, an Italian physician and his Chinese counterpart, plan to work together to conduct the world's first human head transplant.
Sergio Canavero, a controversial physician who previously announced he attempted to transplant a human head to a new body, said he will partner with Ren Xiaoping, a Chinese surgeon with the second affiliated hospital of Harbin Medical University, on this ultimate medical challenge.
At an academic conference in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, Canavero said that a successful head transplant will change the course of human history by curing so far incurable medical conditions; and Ren Xiaoping is the only person in the world able to lead the project.
He said Ren's creation of new models in transplant etiology and experience in clinical etiology is what attracted him to the partnership.
Fifty-three-year-old Ren triggered public debate after successfully transplanting the head of one mouse to another' body in 2013. He announced plans to perform the same operation on primates this year.
Ren's team has since performed almost 1,000 head transplants on mice. They have tested various methods to help the mice live longer after surgery, hitting a survival record of one day.
The two doctors plan to establish an international medical team. They have identified a 30-year-old Russian computer scientist with muscular dystrophy as the first patient for a transplant.
