US adult cigarette smoking rate hits another all-time low - ABC News - Breaking News, Latest News and Videos
Overview
The cigarette smoking rate among U.S. adults fell to another all-time low last year, with about one in 11 adults reporting they currently smoke, according to government survey data. The decline continues a long-term downward trend in smoking prevalence. This trend intersects with other public health concerns — researchers warn that as tobacco smoking drops, exposures like wildfire smoke may become relatively more important for cancer risk, and some countries are pursuing stricter tobacco controls to lock in further declines.
