The Tobacco Epidemic

Introduction One hundred million people died worldwide in the 20th century due to the tobacco epidemic. Just in the 21st century, the spread of tobacco has the potential to kill one billion people. Smoking dies at a rate of 1 in 10 adults worldwide (about 5 million death annually) As the current smoking pattern continues, by 2030 one in six people, about 10 million people a year It dies (World Bank, 1999). This means that about 500 million people living today will eventually be killed by tobacco (Peto et al., 1994).

Introduction In the 20th century, 100 million people died due to the world's tobacco epidemic. In the 21st century, one billion people may die due to the tobacco epidemic. About one tenth of the world's adults die every year about 5 million people, but if the current smoking pattern persists, by 2030 the proportion will be 1/6, which amounts to about 1,000 a year I will. Tens of thousands of dead (World Bank), 1999). - Breathe out every day and please see a doctor every day. Tobacco slowly kills the stick of death by opening the door to chronic diseases such as oral cancer and lung cancer, just as you buy a stick of death. Smoking affects not only smokers directly but also smokers. In 2004, passive smoke died of 63,000 people, accounting for about 1.0% of worldwide mortality. (Inandi)

Lung cancer is one of the first diseases that has a causal relationship with smoking. Although there are reasons for lung cancer in addition to smoking, the incidence of lung cancer has become a pioneer of tobacco mediated diseases that began in the 20th century due to the main cause and influence of smoking among these diseases. . During the first decades of the last century, clinicians noticed an increase in lung cancer, and Ochsner and DeBakey (1939) told that smoking may be the cause of the case series reported in 1939 I guessed. It may be due to an artificial increase in diagnostic bias, but there is no doubt that there is a trend in the Middle Ages (Macklin and Macklin, 1940). Therefore, lung cancer is the focus of many early epidemiological studies on smoking (White 1990; Doll et al 1994). 1999)
