A groundbreaking study is underway to investigate the alarming rates of Indigenous babies affected by their mother's exposure to tobacco smoke. By exploring the link between maternal smoking and infant health outcomes, researchers aim to develop targeted interventions to reduce the risks associated with smoking and improve the wellbeing of First Nations children. With a focus on tobacco control and preventive healthcare, this research has the potential to make a significant impact on the health and futures of Indigenous communities, ultimately reducing health disparities and promoting healthier lifestyles.
