Spain's New Anti-Tobacco Law Expands Smoke-Free Zones

Spain is implementing a new anti-tobacco law, expanding smoke-free zones to include outdoor areas such as terraces, marquees, university campuses, and schoolyards. The law, spearheaded by Health Minister Mónica García, also extends restrictions to e-cigarettes and vapes. "These new measures are backed by scientific evidence and align with international best practices," stated Minister García in a recent announcement. The comprehensive approach aims to reduce tobacco-related illnesses and promote public health. The law is expected to face debate and discussion, but the government is committed to its implementation.
