回环球生，反对抽烟是我们共同目标（见我以前贴）。比较中美可以更深层考虑问题。这里给出统计出处：

美国抽烟死亡率统计来自CDC和更新的统计：

According to the U.S. Surgeon General  CDC, about 480,000 Americans die of smoking-related causes each year, but that figure may be closer to 540,000, researchers from the American Cancer Society report.

 

世界卫生组织：Tobacco in China

 

There are more than 300 million smokers in China, nearly one-third of the world's total.

About one in every 3 cigarettes smoked in the world is smoked in China. Nearly 2.3 trillion cigarettes were consumed in China in 2009 – more than in the other top-4 tobacco-consuming countries (Indonesia, Japan, the Russian Federation and the United States of America) combined.

According to the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) in China in 2010, nearly one-third (28.1%) of the population smokes, including 52.9% of men and 2.4% of women. More than half (52.7%) of smokers aged 20-34 years started smoking daily before the age of 20.

Approximately one million deaths every year in China are caused by tobacco – around one in six of all such deaths worldwide.

把上述统计除以美，中的人口基数，就得到每十万人中抽烟死亡率。如果用抽烟人数作为基数，中国人的抽烟死亡率比美国更低了，因为中国人的抽烟人口是28%，美国是18%。

世界卫生组织和美国CDC是怎样统计的？我相信方法上类似。

"最新统计，美国每年抽烟至死率为每十万人中169人，中国每年抽烟至死率为每十万人中72人。 美国抽烟至死率比中国高一倍以上。"

• 我说的是抽烟致死率。你是癌症率，真是风马牛。美国传染病控制中心和世卫组织是疾病统计最专业权威。你说他们非专业？ -yuzt- ♂ (6 bytes) () 02/12/2015 postreply 18:42:57

• 吸烟是如何致死的？CDC, WHO的数据是调查数据还是估计，得到数据的方式是否一致，简单化地比较往往得出片面的结论 -吃与活- ♂ (0 bytes) () 02/12/2015 postreply 19:31:53
