Smokers scarce
in America.
Fifty years
ago, almost half of Americans smoked cigarettes, during works, in restaurants,
at in schools and even in the hospitals etc. which has changed everything.
According to
a research report and public survey it is said that cigarettes caused lung
cancer and other fatal tumours. It is reported that while not everyone heeded
its call to cut tobacco cut of daily routine life with a decade smoking was
slowly but steadily on the decline. Now day nearly 20 percent of American smoke,
down from 42 percent in 1964. The change in smoking habits has saved eight
million people from dying prematurely over the last 50 years according to
research released this week to coincide with the report’s anniversary.
Lung cancer
rates are down and men and women are living longer than ever before.
In the past
half century, nothing else has come close to this contribution to the health of
Americans. It is firmly believed that when 20th century historian
look back on the last century they are going to conclude that the rise and fall
of all the cigarette constituted one of the most important public health stories
of the century. For instance, while smoking rates are down globally the
actually number of smokers is on the rise in the world as cigarettes gain
popularity in places like China, India and all over the sub-continent. The number
of smokers has been climbed from 750 million in 1980 to 967 million in 2012. Smoking
is still the leading cause of preventable death in the United States
killing a lot of people annually, our
out of every five deaths is a completely preventable smoking produced death.
