« From the Basel Conference: Interview with Luk Joossens | Main | Jean King: The role that cancer societies can play in international tobacco control »
Pascal Diethelm aks all the conference participants to sign the petition to protest the sponsorship of the Basel International Tennis Tournament by Davidoff and ask Roger Federer not to let use his picture in connexion with Davidoff: while he is a Unicef Ambassador, the Davidoff brand is used by Imperial Tobacco to promote smoking in many countries, especially less privileged ones.

The funny thing is that people are aware that they are a risk factor but still they cant stop their tobacco addiction.

I know that Sponsorship is something important and i also know that they can get any sponsor that they want but they are practicing a sport and it is unhealthy to relate cigars with tennis.

Federer won this 2011 Basel open, congrats to him, I'm hoping that he can win the masters at the end of the year.
