According to World Health Organization (WHO) due to tobacco used more than 80 lakh people have been died over the world. Somehow 12 lakh people died without taken smoke and others are used tobacco.

WHO released the information about the use of tobacco on Tuesday? The number of smokers in the world was 132 corers In 2019,. Tobacco use kills more than 6 million people worldwide each year.

However, the number of smokers around the world has decreased over the last few years. In 2020, the number of smokers stood at about 130 crore. As a result, the number of smokers in the world has decreased by 20 million compared to the previous year. The World Health Organization (WHO) has called on countries to strengthen tobacco control measures to prevent the deaths of millions of people worldwide due to tobacco addiction.

World Health Organization (WHO) reports that last year, 36.7 percent of men and 7.6 percent of women worldwide used tobacco products. However, it is unfortunate that 03 crore 60 lakh teenagers between the ages of 13 and 15 are also addicted to tobacco products. The WHO estimates that the number of smokers in the world will drop to 126 crore by 2025. Even if the world population increases, the number of smokers in the world will decrease by 50 million in 8 years.

It is encouraging to see fewer people use tobacco products each year. We still have a long way to go. Tobacco companies make huge profits by selling their deadly products. For this, they sing Safai for it. They will continue to use every strategy at hand in this work.

The number of deaths due to tobacco use had raised for some time, despite a decline in tobacco use said World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanam Gabriasus.
