Thirty per cent of the UAE population whose age group ranges 20-30 smoke shesha, two doctors at Rashid Hospital revealed during a medical lecture held at Al Tawar Ramadan Camp.

They underlined that the shesha causes damage three times more than a cigarette, regretting the attitude of smokers who frequently receive advice on quitting smoking, but continue to do so despite their knowledge about the health hazards of smoking.
