We, the undersigned organisations of the European Lung Health Group representing patients and healthcare professionals in the area of lung health, warmly welcome the adoption of the updated Council recommendation on smoke- and aerosol-free environments, on 3 December.
Lung health is fundamental for a healthier, stronger and more resilient society in Europe. However, respiratory disease, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), remains Europe’s Achilles heel - a significant burden to patients, healthcare systems and to society. The European Lung Health Group (ELHG) is calling on EU policymakers to address lung health in an all-round, multidisciplinary approach in a new publication – “#KeepBreathing: A vision for EU action on lung health 2024-2029”.
