It’s a good thing the Board of Health can’t change the smoking laws in Norway, because if they had their way smoking in the country would cease to exist.
According to a published report the Norwegian Medical Association wants a smoke free country by 2035 and in order to make that happen they have proposed a ban on the sale of tobacco products to anyone born after the year 2000.
According to the NMA, smoking isn’t a basic right. Thankfully not many politicians subscribe to this and getting enough support to pass this measure does not seem likely.
