"The most recent attack on private individuals and the tobacco industry by representatives of the World Health Organisation is another demonstration of the fragility of their arguments. A close look at 'Junking Science to Promote Tobacco' by Derek Yach and Stella Aguinaga Bialous (Derek Yach is with the World Health Organisation, Geneva, Switzerland. Stella Aguinaga Bialous is a public health policy consultant in San Francisco, Calif.) shows that the parameters of scientific, moral and political evaluation adopted by 'public health' are the same distorted ones that the tobacco industry is accused of using."
