Smoking.
1.2 million total. 50,000 of those die of secondhand.
Few people die of smoking directly, but millions of people die each year from smoking-related illnesses such as lung cancer, emphysema and heart disease. Each of these has been linked as a causal factor to smoking.
Smoking is a very unhealthy habit. It is estimated that 53,800 people die every year from secondhand smoke exposure every year.
If someone smokes and the person next to that person is breathing in that air, that's called secondhand smoke. If that person breaths in enough of the secondhand smoke, that person could be sick. Maybe even possibly die with A LOT of air from secondhand smoke!!
According to the CDC: ...during 2000--2004, cigarette smoking and exposure to tobacco smoke resulted in at least 443,000 premature deaths, approximately 5.1 million YPLL [years of potential life lost], and $96.8 billion in productivity losses annually in the United States.
Not necessarily; although it increases their chances, it is nothing that says 'you WILL get cancer if you smoke'. There are people who have been smoking for 35 years & do not have cancer & there are people who did not smoke at all, but got cancer from secondhand smoke.
I would say around 7 people die of smoking a day, so that is 1,176 people die of smoking a week!!
