Smoking has already killed far more people this century than in the entire 20th century - Aussie Zone

Lemmy

I suppose when you compare their success in the rest of the world, the cigarette company’s hard quarter century in Australia’s market is a blip on their otherwise sunlit fields of green green… cash, in the rest of the world.

Not to mention their vapes and black market backdoors now here.

Ngl seems kinda low, given the number of smokers. Am in SEA if that matters.

I suppose there’d be under-reporting in certain countries. It must also be really hard to quantify effects attributable to a death.

Hows the humidity up there today?

Yeah there’s 8x the people
Plus there are probably loads of smoking-related deaths in the 20th century that weren’t attributed to smoking.
And a lot of smoking in the 20th century that only caused death this century.
