背景：新冠疫情給餐飲業(yè)帶來的變化之一就是露天餐桌的流行，為了回避密閉空間的傳播風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，越來越多的餐館和咖啡廳開始把位置放在街邊。這也讓露天座上的抽煙問題引起的關(guān)注越來越大。去年夏天，英國(guó)上議會(huì)試圖通過立法修正案禁止人們?cè)诓惋嫷晖獬闊?，但并未被通過。不過，諾森伯蘭等5個(gè)郡都通過了相關(guān)的規(guī)定，禁止在餐飲店外的露天用餐區(qū)抽煙。這些郡的議會(huì)表示，在露天用餐區(qū)抽煙不僅會(huì)影響其他用餐人士的健康，還會(huì)增加18歲以下的未成年人接觸煙草的機(jī)會(huì)，因此禁令勢(shì)在必行。
