Question

Respiratory disease and smoking

Reviewing the work on respiratory terminology, let's talk about how we could address one the the nation's most preventable causes of lung disease: Do you smoke? Have you ever smoked? Do you have friends or family members who are smokers? Have you seen the effects of this habit on people's health? What do you think the chances are that someone can quit -- and what are some of the techniques recommended?

Finally, what is the cost of smoking in our healthcare system? How do you feel about mandating universal health coverage? About requiring insurance companies to insure everyone, regardless of their poor healthcare habits? Should cessation programs be mandatory, and if they were, do you think they would be helpful?
