SMOKELESS . . . NOT Harmless Great American Spit Out


The Great American Spit out is February 21st. On this day, chew tobacco users are asked to skip the dip and go just one day without tobacco. The thought of quitting for good may be a lot to think about. But, what about quitting just for one day? Jefferson County Public Health encourages you to try. Spread the word and take the pledge to join the Great American Spit Out! This day is just one component of Through With Chew Week, which begins on February 17th.

 For more information about chewing tobacco and its effects on your health, visit us online at www.jefco.us/health. Watch a 5 minute video from the CDC showing the many tactics used by the tobacco industry to entice young and old to this deadly product.
