Abstract: Objective: To determine the prevalence, correlates and changes in secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure over the period after comprehensive smoke-free policy implementation in two Latin American countries.Methods: Data were analysed from population-based representative samples of adult smokers and recent quitters from the 2008 and 2010 waves of the International Tobacco Control Policy Evaluation Survey in Mexico (n = 1766 and 1840, respectively) and Uruguay (n = 1379 and 1411, respectively).

“…For instance, Mexican smokers have a much lower intensity, and less frequent, consumption of cigarettes compared with smokers in HICs 46 47. In addition, prior to and during this study period, Mexico implemented several Framework Convention on Tobacco Control policies, including introduction of pictorial health warnings48 49; implementation of smoke-free laws at the local level12 50; increased taxes on tobacco products51–53 and prohibition of most tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship 54. The relatively simultaneous implementation of a comprehensive set of tobacco control policies, along with lower levels of addiction, may have provided the broader context for potentially inverting the commonly found relationship between neighbourhood deprivation and smoking outcomes.…”

“…At the initial wave of data collection for each city, two block groups within each census tract were selected, with selection proportional to the number of residents. Households were then visited in random order to enumerate household members and recruit eligible study participants 12. Quotas were set for smokers per block group; if that number was not reached, another block group was selected at random and eligible participants selected according to the same protocol.…”

“…Air monitoring data from enclosed spaces collected in 2010 indicate high enforcement of the legislation 25 . In Mexico City, the prevalence of passive smoking in restaurants remained stable between 2008 and 2010 (5%-7%), while in other Mexican cities with passive smoking prevalence higher than Mexico City's, a statistically significant reduction was observed in the same period (32%-17%) 24 . Mexico City was the first jurisdiction of the country to ban smoking in public and workspaces, in April 2008.…”
