He announced a broad anti drug media campaign with education groups and ads in NFL venues. Surgeon General Carmona cited higher tar and brain effects versus tobacco and warned one in five eighth graders has tried marijuana. Medical leaders urged consistent messages and adult example to deter youth use.
