Encore: AV on Health

African Americans are second only to Native Americans and Alaskan Natives in the number of people who still smoke. Of the African Americans who still light up, three in four smoke menthol cigarettes; menthol makes it easier to start - and harder to quit smoking. Cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby and Rita Miller, Tobacco Use and Dependence Treatment Coordinator with the Virginia Department of Health, talk about the dangers of smoking and offer specific ways to quit. Plus, Producer Lisa Godley has information on upcoming community events you won't want to miss.
