Using Tobacco

Question 6 • PMHS Health Q2

Which of the following is TRUE about the negative impact of tobacco use on both families and society?

Answer
A
Families and society are both negatively impacted by increased financial stress due to tobacco use.
B
Neither families nor society are negatively impacted by loss of productivity due to tobacco use.
C
Higher insurance rates to pay for the cost of treating cancer-related illness are levied at the families of smokers, but not at society as a whole.
D
all of the above

Explanation

Tobacco use can create financial stress for families through spending on tobacco and health care, and it also creates costs for society through medical expenses and other economic burdens. Choice B is false because tobacco-related illness and early death can reduce productivity. Choice C is also false because the costs of treating tobacco-related illnesses can affect society broadly, not just smokers’ families. Therefore, the true statement is that both families and society face increased financial stress.
