FDA announces tobacco warnings and labeling. NYT article on the new warnings.
Writes a friend:
In 2009, congress passed a law requiring FDA to adopt graphic warning labels, which they did in 2010. The tobacco industry successfully challenged those specific labels as being overblown and going beyond the science. Today, FDA announces a proposed rule to require graphic warning labels. The rule will be open for public comment for a year.
A comparison with Canada's warnings which, I'm told, are reasonably tame.
