    27 July 1965 - PRESIDENT LYNDON B. JOHNSON SIGNS A BILL requiring
    cigarette makers to print health warnings on all cigarette packages
    about the effects of smoking from 01 January 1966.

    Tobacco package warning messages are warning messages that appear on the packaging of cigarettes and other tobacco products concerning their
    health effects. They have been implemented in an effort to enhance the
    public's awareness of the harmful effects of smoking. In general,
    warnings used in different countries try to emphasize the same messages.
    Such warnings have been required in tobacco advertising for many years,
    with the earliest mandatory warning labels implemented in the United
    States in 1966. Implementing tobacco warning labels has been strongly
    opposed by the tobacco industry.
