Enyioha-Led Study Highlights Effective Communication Strategies to Support Health Warning Labels on Little Cigars and Cigarillos Among Young Adults
Lead author Chineme Enyioha, MD, MPH, and colleagues were published in BMC Public Health, aiming to design effective communication strategies to support health warning labels (HWLs) on little cigars and cigarillos (LCCs), a tobacco product increasingly popular among young adults. The study established four types of messages for the graphic HWLs: explanatory, testimonial, inquisitive, and recommendation, each illustrating the health risks tied to LCC usage.
