Smoking Kills

In many countries, cigarette packets carry the mandatory warning "Smoking Kills". By some estimates, one in three. I think, a fairly unique aspect of ministry is that ministers, on their hospital rounds, obtains a survey of what this means. They see the beginning with the end. I have wondered whether people would smoke at all if they had the ministerial perspective. At the moment, people are clamouring for a reversal of South Africa's cigarette ban during the pandemic.
