[Anti-smoking campaign in an average French department, la Drôme; epidemiological analysis and prospects for the future].
The campaign against smoking requires a dynamic attitude in the field. With this in mind, a study was conducted in 14 to 16 year old school-children in the Drôme region and a questionnaire was sent to all doctors in the region. The school survey confirmed the results obtained previously in similar studies, such as the high proportion of girls who smoke and the essential role of the family. There was no valorising element associated with cigarettes in young people. The aim of the questionnaire, which was sent to all doctors registered in the Drôme region (more than 800), was to encourage them to adopt a dynamic attitude towards smoking in their professional practice. The high reply rate was encouraging, even if not all of the doctors are ready for an aggressive campaign.
