Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Cardiovascular Health, Stroke and Heart Attack: Discussion

Mr. Chris Macey:

Absolutely. For example, the last time I looked at smoking rates, I saw that 50% of women in the Traveller community were smokers. That might have changed a bit since as that is going back a few years but one in four women in Traveller community were dying from the effects of smoking. That is the level we are talking about.
