摘要

Cigarette smoking remains the single most important preventable cause of death and disability in this country. It is responsible for some 440,000 deaths a year in smokers, another 35,000 deaths in non-smokers, and costs Americans more than $150 billion per year in health care costs and lost productivity. Smoking rates have declined from 65% of adults in the 1960's to about 23% in 1990. That level of smoking has remained stagnant in the last 13 years. There is ample evidence to believe that rates could be decreased further if; in addition to employing patches, gum, pills, and stern warnings, we changed the social milieu to make it less accommodating to smokers.
