Smoke Less Tobacco

Globally, 12% of all deaths in adults 30 years and older are attributable to tobacco use. The harms of smokeless tobacco, both at the level of individuals and of society as a whole, has posed a complex and widespread challenge to public health which has so far received only limited attention from from researchers and policy makers. Despite the rapidly changing landscape in the manufacture and marketing of smokeless tobacco, these products are not sufficiently regulated in many countries. Globally, 12% of all deaths in adults 30 years and older are attributable to tobacco use. Much of the tobacco-related illness and death in many countries is now caused by smokeless (ST) tobacco and this has gone unnoticed in most countries, except in a few economies in South Asia. However, most tobacco control strategies have traditionally focused on smoking tobacco, especially cigarettes. The regulation of S&T therefore increasingly poses a major public health challenge, in particular in IMT where a high prevalence of S&T coexists with limited expertise and resources for regulation.
