Death in Smoking



1 in 2 smokers will die from their habit. (and for every smoker who dies of lung cancer, 5 will die from some other disease) True or false? 20% of all deaths in North America are caused by cigarette smoking. One in two smokers will die from their habit, losing an average of 15 years of life. One third of all deaths in middle age (ages 35-69) are caused by cigarettes. Incredible, but: True. True. True.
