The smoking situation of Chinese people has a long way to go
Good news:
Compared with 2010, the proportion of people who saw smoking in indoor workplaces, public places, public transportation, and homes was all different in 2015 The decline indicates that the population''s exposure to second-hand smoke has improved.
After 1996, the smoking rate of men ≥15 years old is now on a downward trend. From 2002 to 2010, the standardization of the annual smoking rate has decreased by 0.08%; the smoking cessation rate has increased slightly, from 9.42% in 1996 to 16.9% in 2010.
Bad news:
Since 1984, Chinese men have been among the people with the highest smoking rates in the world. The male smoking rate was 63% in 1984; from 1996 to 2010, the average was more than 50%.
According to 2015 data, the smoking rate of Chinese men is still at a high level. The standardized smoking rate for people ≥15 years old is 27.7% (52.1% for men and 2.7% for women). Compared with 2010, smoking now The number of smokers increased by 15 million; in 2015, the average daily smokers smoke 15.2 cigarettes, an increase of one cigarette compared to 2010.
According to 2014 data, the current tobacco use rate among Chinese teenagers is 6.9%; boys (11.2%) are higher than girls (2.2%), and rural areas (7.8%) are higher than cities (4.8%);
According to 2010 data, the exposure rate of second-hand smoke among all non-smokers was 72.4% in 2010. It is estimated that 738 million non-smokers in China are exposed to second-hand smoke.
Both good news and bad news:
There are many people who try to quit smoking (more than 70%), but very few people quit smoking successfully (less than 19%) . (2014) Among current smokers, 71.8% have tried to quit smoking. (2015) Among all former and current smokers, 18.7% of smokers are in a non-smoking state (approximately understood as successful quitting).
In addition to lung cancer, smoking also contributes a lot to cardiovascular disease (CVD). The risk factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Chinese residents are generally exposed, showing a rapid growth in the younger age and low-income groups and the tendency of individual aggregation. The number of patients with CVD will continue to grow rapidly in the next 10 years. At present, CVD deaths account for the top cause of death among urban and rural residents, 45.01% in rural areas and 42.61% in urban areas. In 2015, CVD mortality still ranked first, higher than tumors and other diseases.
The prevalence of CVD in China is in a continuous rising stage. The estimated number of CVD patients is 290 million, including 13 million stroke, 11 million coronary heart disease, 5 million pulmonary heart disease, 4.5 million heart failure, 2.5 million rheumatic heart disease, 2 million congenital heart disease, 270 million hypertension .
