“Chew On This” for a Tobacco Free India
Dr Prashant Pawar, Head and Neck Cancer Surgeon at Tata Memorial Hospital, asks us to support the Chew On This campaign:
Men and women as young as 18 years of age have to get their voice boxes, sections of wind-pipes, cheeks and tongues surgically removed as a result of their tobacco use.
You could save the life of a friend, or permanent scarring and suffering, by sharing Chew On This with as many people as possible.
Help me get back to my job at the cancer ward, rather than dealing with these entirely preventable tobacco-caused diseases.
