However, the figures from the Tobacco Atlas report’s described as a potential tipping point by the authors also mask growing numbers of smokers in parts of the world, as well as increased tobacco use among young teenagers in almost half of the countries surveyed.
That represented a decline in smoking rates from 22.6 percent of people in 2007 to 19.6 per cent in 2019, they said, the first since the report began in 2002. “The industry is still preying on emerging economies in ways that will lock in harms for a generation or more,” said Jeffrey Drope, public health professor at the University of Illinois anda report author.
Falling prevalence globally was a sign of the effectiveness of strong tobacco control measures, such as increased taxes, Drope added, but many lower-income countries did not have tough enough restrictions in place.
