The good news is that now less than 2 out of 10 adults smoke. The number of American adults who smoke has dropped below 20 percent for the first time in our nation’s history. The bad news is health officials said that cigarettes kill almost a half-million people a year. The 1990s showed adult males in the U.S. lost an average of 13.2 years of their lives and females lost 14.5 years due to smoking. Compared to people who continue smoking, smokers who quit before age 50 cut their risk of dying in half over the next 15 years, according to the American Cancer Society.
On November 18th, the Great American Smokeout will celebrate its 36th anniversary. This event has remarkably changed America’s health. Millions stop smoking for a day, but many people successfully quit for good. It has helped keep young people from starting smoking and protected nonsmokers from the dangers of second-hand smoke.
When the event began in 1974 smoking was accepted as a cultural norm. Now smoking is viewed for what it actually is…a killer. Smoking ,as well as secondhand smoke, kills 443,000 people every year from cancer, lung disease, heart disease and other causes, said the CDC. Half of all long-term smokers, especially those who start as teenagers, die much too young, many in middle age.
