Tobacco use is costly, but so is quitting. Surveys of 8 African countries show who needs help

Tobacco use imposes a large health and economic burden worldwide. Research estimates that, in 2019, about 8-million deaths were attributable to tobacco smoking. Tobacco also reduces years of healthy living: about 200-million disability-adjusted life years in 2019. This health burden comes with high economic costs, directly through medical treatment for tobacco-related diseases, and indirectly through productivity losses. Globally, the total economic cost of smoking amounted to around 1.8% of the world’s annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2012. Global studies are rare because they are so data intensive.
