Résumé :
In 2014, the Nation marked the 50th anniversary of the first Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health. In 1964, more than 40 percent of the adult population smoked. Once the link between smoking and its medical consequences - including cancers and heart and lung diseases - became a part of the public consciousness, education efforts and public policy changes were enacted to reduce the number of people who smoke. These efforts resulted in substantial declines in smoking rates in the United States - to half the 1964 level.
However, rates of cigarette smoking and other tobacco use are still too high, and some populations are disproportionately affected by tobacco's health consequences. Most notably, people with mental disorders - including substance use disorders - smoke at higher rates than the general population. Additionally, people living below the poverty line and those with low educational attainment are more likely to smoke than those in the general population. As tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of mortality in the United States, differential rates of smoking and use of other tobacco products is a significant contributor to health disparities among some of the most vulnerable people in our society.
