Sure it's effective if you're looking at the reduction rate of existing number alone. But reverse the problem and the very big effort of warning about dangerous-to-lethal stuff still doesn't stop 11% of people from doing so. That's quite bad, when you think about going from zero (you can't willy-nilly use untested medicine) to 11% of the society. |

That's exactly correct bart, it reduced smoking by over two thirds and kept it that way.
> still doesn't stop 11% of people from doing so.
Like seatbelts, vaccines, and all other health and safety procedures that also don't have a 100% total absolute success rate .. nor never claimed to.
Who wants to wrap people in bubble wrap and lock them away from the world? Are you advocating for that?
