Download or read book WHO Global Report on Trends in Prevalence of Tobacco Smoking, 2015 written by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2015. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report contains country-specific estimates for four indicators: current and daily tobacco smoking and current and daily cigarette smoking, for males and females for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020 and 2025. Estimates were not calculated for countries where there were insufficient data to estimate trends. Age-specific prevalence estimates by sex for current tobacco smoking for 2000, 2010 and 2025 are presented, as well a short history of recent surveys undertaken by the country. The report provides an assessment of the next survey due for the country based on the WHO recommendation to undertake a survey at least once every five years (acknowledging that some countries undertake surveys on a more regular basis). The complete list of national surveys used to calculate the estimates in this report is available on request."--Page 3
