Abstract

Among the phenomena that spread in the world is the phenomenon of smoking, where it was plagued by developing countries more than others, and statistics indicate the increasing number of smokers daily and at all levels of social men and women and even young people. The global statistics, research and reports issued by the statistical health authorities confirmed that smoking kills more than ten thousand people every day, all of which confirms - without a doubt - that smoking tobacco and all its forms and methods are more dangerous and deadly to humanity than natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, volcanoes, And epidemics.
Research indicates that the mortality rate due to smoking also increases in the countries that were called socialism, where smoking accounted for about 17% of the total deaths in 1995, and is expected to reach 22% by 2020. "
