Editor's Note

FULL TEXT
A reader recently expressed shock over the fact that the cover photograph on the 17 July 2012 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine depicts an elderly man with a cigarette in his right hand. This reader thought the photograph essentially said, “Even though I smoke, I was able to become an old man.” The editors apologize to other readers who may have found this photograph offensive. Our intention is not to use cover photographs that demonstrate unequivocally unhealthy behaviors. We did not recognize that the individual in the photograph was holding a cigarette when we chose to accept it for inclusion in the journal.
