5月31日是世界無(wú)煙日，今年世界無(wú)煙日的主題是煙草和心臟病。世界衛(wèi)生組織表示，全球每年有300萬(wàn)人因煙草使用導(dǎo)致的心血管和中風(fēng)等疾病過(guò)早死亡。為了你和周?chē)说慕】?，?qǐng)放下手中的香煙。

Fewer people are smoking worldwide, especially women, but only one country in eight is on track to meet a target of reducing tobacco use significantly by 2025, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday.

世界衛(wèi)生組織本周四表示，全球吸煙人數(shù)特別是女性吸煙者在減少，但僅有八分之一的國(guó)家有望在2025年前實(shí)現(xiàn)大規(guī)模減少煙草使用的目標(biāo)。

Three million people die prematurely each year due to tobacco use that causes cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and stroke, the world's leading killers, it said, marking World No Tobacco Day. They include 890,000 deaths through second-hand smoke exposure.

世衛(wèi)組織在世界無(wú)煙日到來(lái)之際表示，全球每年有300萬(wàn)人因煙草使用導(dǎo)致的心臟病和中風(fēng)等心血管疾病過(guò)早死亡，其中89萬(wàn)人死于二手煙。這些疾病是頭號(hào)健康殺手。

The WHO clinched a landmark treaty in 2005, now ratified by 180 countries, that calls for a ban on tobacco advertising and sponsorship, and taxes to discourage use.

世衛(wèi)組織在2005年締結(jié)了一項(xiàng)標(biāo)志性公約，呼吁禁止煙草廣告和贊助，并增加煙草稅來(lái)控?zé)?。如今已?80個(gè)成員批準(zhǔn)生效。

"The worldwide prevalence of tobacco smoking has decreased from 27 percent in 2000 to 20 percent in 2024, so progress has been made," Douglas Bettcher, director of the WHO's prevention of noncommunicable diseases department, told a news briefing.

世衛(wèi)組織非傳染性疾病預(yù)防司司長(zhǎng)道格拉斯?貝徹在資訊發(fā)布會(huì)上說(shuō)：“全球吸煙率已從2000年的27%下降到2024年的20%，我們已經(jīng)取得了進(jìn)步?！?/p>

Launching the WHO's global report on trends in prevalence of tobacco smoking, he said that industrialized countries are making faster progress than developing countries.

他在發(fā)布世衛(wèi)組織全球吸煙率趨勢(shì)報(bào)告時(shí)說(shuō)，工業(yè)化國(guó)家比發(fā)展中國(guó)家控?zé)熯M(jìn)步更快。

"One of the major factors impeding low- and middle-income countries certainly is countries face resistance by a tobacco industry who wishes to replace clients who die by freely marketing their products and keeping prices affordable for young people," he added.

Progress in kicking the habit is uneven, with the Americas the only region set to meet the target of a 30 percent reduction in tobacco use by 2025 compared to 2010, for both men and women, the WHO said.

世衛(wèi)組織說(shuō)，各國(guó)在控?zé)煼矫孢M(jìn)展不一，與2010年相比，美洲是唯一一個(gè)將在2025年前實(shí)現(xiàn)男性和女性的煙草使用量降低30%的地區(qū)。

However, the United States is currently not on track, bogged down by litigation over warnings on cigarette packaging and lags in taxation, said Vinayak Prasad of the WHO's tobacco control unit.

世衛(wèi)組織煙草控制部門(mén)的維納亞克-普拉薩德說(shuō)，但由于煙草包裝警示標(biāo)識(shí)的訴訟以及煙草稅征收不力，美國(guó)目前的控?zé)熯M(jìn)展并不順利。

Parts of Western Europe have reached a "standstill," particularly due to a failure to get women to stop smoking, African men are lagging, and tobacco use in the Middle East is actually set to increase, the WHO said.

部分西歐地區(qū)進(jìn)入“停滯期”，部分原因是沒(méi)能讓女性戒煙。非洲男性也拖了后腿，中東地區(qū)的煙草使用其實(shí)在增加。

Overall, tobacco kills more than 7 million a year and many people know that it increases the risk of cancer, the WHO said.

世衛(wèi)組織稱(chēng)，總體來(lái)看，吸煙每年導(dǎo)致超過(guò)700萬(wàn)人死亡，很多人都知道吸煙會(huì)增加患癌風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。

But many tobacco users in China and India are unaware of their increased risk of developing heart disease and stroke, making it urgent to step up awareness campaigns, it said.

但中國(guó)和印度的很多煙草使用者并沒(méi)有意識(shí)到他們患上心臟病和中風(fēng)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)在增加，要加強(qiáng)宣傳增強(qiáng)意識(shí)。

"The percentage of adults who do not believe smoking causes stroke are for example in China as high as 73 percent, for heart attacks 61 percent of adults in China are not aware that smoking increases the risk," Bettcher said. "We aim to close this gap."

貝徹說(shuō)：“比如在中國(guó)，有多達(dá)73%的成年人不相信吸煙會(huì)導(dǎo)致中風(fēng)，61%的成年人不知道吸煙會(huì)增加患心臟病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。我們要縮小這個(gè)差距?！?/p>

China and India have the highest numbers of smokers worldwide, accounting for 307 million and 106 million, respectively, of the world's 1.1 billion adult smokers, followed by Indonesia with 74 million, WHO figures show. India also has 200 million of the world's 367 million smokeless tobacco users.

世衛(wèi)組織的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，全球共有11億成年吸煙者。中國(guó)和印度的吸煙人數(shù)全球最高，分別是3.07億人和1.06億人。排在之后的是印度尼西亞，吸煙者有7400萬(wàn)人。全球共有3.67億無(wú)煙煙草制品使用者，其中印度占了2億。
