烟草公司推无烟香烟：不需点燃，毒性降低90% - IT资讯
据英国《每日邮报》11月30日报道，烟草巨头菲利普莫里斯国际公司新推出的无烟香烟采用智能流控技术，与传统香烟相比，仍有尼古丁的功效，但毒性降低90%，有望取代传统香烟市场。这款采用智能流控技术的香烟价值45英镑(约388.51元人民币)，已经在众多市场上有出售，包括日本、瑞士和意大利。与传统电子烟不同的是，这款采用迷你支烟条来取代价值8-20英镑的(69.09-172.73元)尼古丁液体装置。
烟草在这款无烟香烟里是被加热而不是燃烧。专家表示，这样做可以大大减少危害，但是同时表示，这款新型设备的安全性远不如电子烟。
菲利普莫里斯公司的行政总裁在接受英国广播公司采访时表示：“我相信，随着这一产品被广泛接受，没有香烟的时代将会到来。”
菲利普莫里斯是除美国以外生产万宝路牌香烟的香烟巨头，在传统香烟上占据了大片市场，获得了巨大利润。
尽管随着越来越多的人戒烟，不再用电子烟，烟草市场正在不断缩水，但该公司称，到2025年全世界烟民仍有100万。目前与菲利普莫里斯竞争的烟草公司正紧随其后，在科学实验中检测他们的类似产品。
英国吸烟与健康行动组织的首席执行官Deborah Arnott表示：“菲利普莫里斯称，这可能是一款低风险的产品。如果烟民将目光转向电子烟或者其他可以减少健康风险的产品上，公共健康水平也能大大提升。但是在烟草行业，吸烟有害健康的这一事实是很难改变的，但烟草公司仍然在推进烟草行业向前发展，所以菲利普莫里斯此次推出的这款新产品能否解决吸烟会造成的慢性疾病的问题仍有待独立研究和调查。”
医生马丁博士表示：“不关你吸的是烟斗、雪茄还是香烟，都会导致癌症。改变烟草的使用方式仍然改变不了它有害健康这个事实。由于没有相关研究证明其无害，我们也无从知晓它是否安全，所以无论怎么说都不能说它是安全的。”
据统计，美国有4210万烟民，英国有940万，而吸烟导致每年600万人死亡，引发17种癌症;20世纪全球吸烟人口达1亿，比一战和二战的死亡人数还要多。据世界卫生组织估计，本世纪因吸烟引起的疾病而死亡的人数将达到10亿。
