Doctor in the House: World No Tobacco Day 2019

Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. It’s World No Tobacco Day! Most of us know that tobacco use can adversely affect our lung health. The government has been implementing and planning various policies to curb tobacco use by Malaysians such as the smoking ban in eateries and a new law on tobacco control. But do these policies have a positive impact on our lung health? We’ll be speaking to Dr Zarihah Zain, the medical director of the Malaysian Women’s Action for Tobacco Control and Health (MyWATCH) alongside consultant urologist, Dr George Lee.
