Smoking: men are still the main victims
Article Abstract:
Worldwide, 8,000 men die every day from smoking. That is 2.8 million men each year. The trend is expected to continue upward so that in little more than twenty years, most people will die from tobacco use than any other disease. Men account for 80% of all tobacco deaths, because in most countries more men have been smoking longer than women.
