Correction to: International Journal of Public Health https://doi.org/10.1007/s00038-019-01316-y
In the above paper, authors stated mistakenly that Philip Morris International acquired 35% of JUUL shares, while Altria, the parent company of Philip Morris USA, made that acquisition, and that IQOS is an e-cigarette, while it is considered by the FDA as a heat-not-burn tobacco device.
Hence, line 13 of section “Good industry/bad industry” should read as”……Altria (owner of Philip Morris USA) to acquire 35% of their shares…”.
