Cigarros electrónicos (E-cigs) o vapes

Los conocemos como cigarros electrónicos o vapeadores. Tienen la apariencia de un “USB”1. Tienen nicotina líquida con sabor. En muchos casos tienen más nicotina que un cigarrillo regular.

En Oregon en 2017, el 13 % de los alumnos de 11.º grado reportaron haber utilizado cigarrillos electrónicos.

Entre los alumnos de 11.º grado que actualmente consumen tabaco, casi la mitad comenzó con cigarrillos electrónicos.

Tabaco comestible

¡No te engañes! No porque sea comestible significa que es menos peligroso. El tabaco sin humo causa cáncer de boca, esófago y páncreas; también causa enfermedad de las encías y pérdida de dientes2. Lo venden con sabores a caramelo para que sea más atractivo para los jóvenes.

People who are addicted to tobacco feel the loss at the cash register, paying more than $5 for a pack of cigarettes.1  (In fact, a person who smokes a pack a day will save about $2,000 per year if they quit.)2 They also live with a greater risk of developing heart disease, cancer, diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis.3

Even people who don’t use tobacco feel the pain it delivers. Nearly 8,000 people in Oregon die of tobacco-related diseases every year.4 Nationwide, more people die from tobacco than from illegal drug use, car crashes and gun deaths combined.5

Those lost lives hurt the most, but the financial cost is painful, too: in Oregon alone, tobacco costs $2.9 billion in direct medical costs and lost productivity every year.6 That’s more than Oregon spends annually on public safety—for prisons, state police and the courts.7

We pay as a state and as individuals – through our taxes and through health insurance rates – to the tune of $1,700 for every Oregon household each year.8

If together we could keep the tobacco industry at bay and help people heal, what opportunities could we build with those dollars?

Myth

If I don’t smoke, does tobacco have any affect on me?

Yes!

Oregon loses $2.9 billion per year to tobacco.
$1.5 billion is in direct medical expenses9 that we pay as a state and as individuals, through our taxes and health insurance rates.
The remaining $1.4 billion is in indirect losses. That’s what people who got sick or died from tobacco use would have earned if they had never used tobacco.10

Collection Detail Page

Over the years, people in Oregon have worked together to protect most employees from secondhand smoke and vape aerosol. They have created more smoke-free housing, especially for renters. They have created smoke-free parks, colleges, events and many other places. By asking for changes and supporting smoke-free laws, we are protecting people’s health, helping prevent chronic diseases like heart disease and asthma, and helping people quit tobacco or not start.

Addressing Social Determinants of Health Resources

CTA – Orange Background

Despite these strong laws, a lot of people — especially those who work in places like hotels, casinos, home care and construction sites — still breathe smoke on the job. People earning lower wages, like service and hospitality workers, are more likely to still breathe secondhand smoke on the job. And children and adults are still exposed in many public places.

Where You Live and Shop

  • When you’re looking for a new home, check for non-smoking rental listings. Tell landlords that you want smoke-free housing. As of 2010, landlords in Oregon are required to share their smoking policy as part of the rental agreement.
  • Encourage your landlord to adopt smoke-free housing policies. Explain that it’s legal to do so, and that people want it: three-fourths of renters are looking for a no-smoking unit. Share that studies show a non-smoking unit is almost $5,000 cheaper to clean after a renter moves out, compared to costs for cleaning a unit where people smoked.
  • Talk with your neighbors about smoke-free units and smoke-free outdoor areas. Gather signatures for a petition to the landlord, manager or owner to show support for going smoke-free.
  • Notice tobacco advertising and marketing in your community. Shop at places that do not sell or advertise tobacco, and let the owner know why you chose their store.

Image Right

When You Drive

  • Make your car or truck smoke-free, and don’t be afraid to ask passengers to respect your request. It’s better for everyone’s health, smells fresher and is easier to keep clean.
  • When it comes to children and cars, smoke-free is Oregon law. As of January 2014, it is a secondary traffic violation to smoke in a motor vehicle with anyone under the age of 18 present. Individuals can be fined up to $250 for the first offense and up to $500 each time after that for smoking in a vehicle when youth are present.

Qué se está haciendo y qué más se puede hacer en Oregon para protegernos del tabaco:

  • Licencia de Venta Minorista de Tabaco:
    En Oregon solo los condados de Multnomah, Benton, Clatsop, Lane y Klamath exigen que los comercios tengan esta licencia para poder vender productos de tabaco. Oregon es uno de 9 estados en todo Estados Unidos que no obliga a las tiendas a tener esta licencia para vender tabaco. Si más condados se unen, podemos proteger a más jóvenes y adultos de volverse adictos al tabaco y ayudar a las personas que quieren dejar de fumar.
  • Aumento del precio al tabaco:
    En todo el país, las comunidades están aumentando el precio del tabaco, a veces al aumentar los impuestos o poniendo reglas para que no se vendan productos de tabaco con descuentos.
  • Limitar en dónde se anuncia y se vende el tabaco:
    Tu comunidad puede limitar el número de tiendas que venden tabaco y que están cerca de las escuelas. Así, niños/as no están expuestos a esos anuncios.
  • Farmacias libres de tabaco:
    En Estados Unidos hay un movimiento para que las farmacias dejen de vender productos de tabaco. Ya ciudades como San Francisco y Massachusetts lo prohíben. Por ejemplo, la farmacia CVS eliminó los productos de tabaco de todas las tiendas en todo el país y siguen teniendo mucho éxito.

Conoce más lo que se hace en Oregon para protegernos del tabaco.

Pharmacy Page

Select pharmacies are now able to prescribe medications to help you quit smoking for good. Health insurance plans, including Oregon Health Plan, cover medications like patches and gum for free with a prescription. Find a pharmacy near you.

Nicotine is very addictive and difficult to quit. Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) includes products like gum, patches, nasal spray, inhalers, and lozenges. Science has shown that NRT reduces the urge to use tobacco and helps with nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Using NRT can increase a person’s chances of successfully quitting by 50-70%.1

Ask your pharmacist about getting medication to quit smoking. It’s quick. It’s easy.

To find a pharmacy offering this service near you, zoom in to your location on the map below. Check back often, as more pharmacies are adding this service every month.

Can’t find a participating pharmacy near you? Check out these resources to help you quit on your own, ask your doctor for a prescription for quit-smoking medication, or call the Oregon Quit Line for free counseling and NRT.

Target Community background

Targeted Community group

American Indian and Alaska Native Peoples

For many tribal communities, traditional tobacco is a sacred plant used for healing, prayer and celebration. Colonizers stole it, mixed in deadly additives, and market commercial tobacco back to tribal communities to create addiction. The commercial tobacco industry sees these Nations as open opportunities to maximize profits through promotions, events and giveaways.

The tobacco industry harms tribes and Native communities in Oregon. It steals cultural imagery and misrepresents sacred traditions to sell its products. Sovereign Tribal Nations are not subject to state and local smoke-free laws and other protections. The commercial tobacco industry sees these Nations as open opportunities to maximize profits through promotions, events and giveaways.

In Oregon, 30 percent of American Indians smoke compared to 18 percent of non-Hispanic whites. 

In Oregon, native-led organizations and the state’s nine federally recognized tribes have united to fight back. They are using their tribal culture to prevent commercial tobacco use and fight tobacco industry tactics. The Native Quit Line offers culturally-specific help for American Indian and Alaska Native peoples to quit tobacco.

Tobacco-free Housing

Tobacco-free housing is a growing trend across the state, with many homeowners and landlords adopting smoke- or tobacco-free policies for their homes and buildings. For example, with very positive feedback from staff and residents, Guardian Management LLC took all 12,000 of its rental units smoke-free in 2008. As of 2018, all housing authorities in Oregon have a no-smoking policy for some or all of their properties.

Protégete del humo de segunda mano en el trabajo

En Oregon los latinos representan el 12.5% de la fuerza trabajadora. Los latinos trabajamos duro y muchas horas de sol a sombra. Cuando otros pueden trabajar desde casa, muchas veces no tenemos esa opción e ir a trabajar representa un riesgo enorme de contraer enfermedades provocadas por el tabaco, aún si no somos fumadores. 

Y es que muchos latinos/as trabajan en lugares como hoteles, restaurantes, casinos, servicios de atención domiciliaria y obras de construcción.  Estos trabajos nos ponen en alto riesgo de exponernos a respirar humo de cigarro o de cigarrillos electrónicos. 

En Oregon existen reglas que te protegen del humo de segunda mano en tu trabajo y en tu vivienda rentada. Es importante que conozcas más sobre estas leyes y espacios, para que puedas mantenerte saludable.
