Although I have no direct experience of those with HIV, I am guessing that people with this condition suffer a great deal of stress related to it. Stress is often the factor that prevents people from stopping smoking and this, in turn, increases stress levels. Smoking cessation and tobacco control initiatives need to address this in order to help people with HIV to stop smoking.
