The City of Cape Town has announced several changes as part of an initiative to phase out smoking and tobacco sales.

This will include new smoke-free spaces across the city which will create healthier environments and protect the planet, it said in a presentation on Tuesday .

“In addition, city health will continue enforcement of tobacco legislation, raise awareness through anti-smoking health promotion campaigns and assist staff and residents who are thinking of quitting by providing guidance on smoking cessation,” it said. “We have made some progress in getting the public to understand the risks associated with smoking, but many more are struggling to give up cigarettes as evidenced by the exorbitant prices they were willing to pay for cigarettes during the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. Quitting tobacco immediately improves your health. After just two weeks your circulation and lung function could start to increase.
