Tobacco use falling worldwide but Big Tobacco fighting to reserve trend, WHO says
"I'm astounded at the depths the tobacco industry will go to pursue profits at the expense of countless lives," says the World Health Organization's director of health promotion, Ruediger Krech.
The number of adult tobacco users has dropped steadily in recent years, the World Health Organization said on Tuesday, but it warned Big Tobacco is working hard to reverse that trend.
In 2022, about one-in-five adults around the world were smokers or consumed other tobacco products, compared to one-in-every-three in 2000, the United Nations health agency said.
A fresh report looking at trends in the prevalence of tobacco use between 2000 and 2030 showed that 150 countries were successfully reducing it, the WHO said.
You're viewing a single thread.
I hope they succeed reserving it.
Why do you want more people smoking?
OP is poking fun at the typo in the title. It's says "...reserve trend" not "reverse trend".
Typo in the headline
Miss a well made joke and haters just pour out.
There are too many people who get older and older.
