No tobacco day is May 31st
 

The World Health Organization has designated May 31 as World No Tobacco Day. It is an annual campaign by health professionals around the world who unite in the effort to inform the public about the devastating risks of tobacco, warn about the tactics tobacco companies use to addict smokers and promote what people can do to “claim their right to health and healthy living.”
