W Republice Południowej Afryki odsetek osób palących tytoń wśród dorosłych w wieku 15 lat i starszych wyniósł w 2022 roku 20,3%. Dla porównania, w 2020 roku było to 20,2%, a w 2019 roku – 20,7%. Dane według płci z 2022 roku wskazują, że 35,1% mężczyzn i 6,5% kobiet paliło tytoń, co wyraźnie ukazuje znaczną różnicę między płciami w nawykach palenia. Wskaźnik codziennego palenia tytoniu wśród dorosłych w 2021 roku wyniósł 21,2%, przy czym dotyczył 35,1% mężczyzn i 8,3% kobiet. Jeśli chodzi o zgony, palenie było przyczyną 4,42% wszystkich zgonów w 2021 roku, z wyższym odsetkiem wśród mężczyzn (5,75%) niż wśród kobiet (2,86%). W 2021 roku liczba zgonów związanych z paleniem wyniosła 32 442, w tym 22 817 mężczyzn i 9 625 kobiet. Ponadto liczba palaczy w 2022 roku wyniosła około 8 617 084, co stanowi wzrost w porównaniu z 8 323 703 osobami palącymi w 2020 roku. Statystyki te pokazują, że palenie wyrobów tytoniowych pozostaje poważnym wyzwaniem dla zdrowia publicznego w Republice Południowej Afryki, co podkreśla potrzebę wdrażania działań ukierunkowanych na ograniczenie rozpowszechnienia palenia oraz związanej z nim umieralności.

Redukcja szkód związanych z tytoniem w Afryce Subsaharyjskiej
Ponieważ liczba użytkowników tytoniu na całym kontynencie ma wzrosnąć do 2025 roku, przyglądamy się obecnemu stanowi redukcji szkód związanych z tytoniem w regionie, oceniając dotychczasowe postępy i przeszkody utrudniające szersze stosowanie bezpieczniejszych produktów nikotynowych.
African Region - Increasing Daily Tobacco Prevalence Trends (Male and Female)
- No Fire, No Smoke: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction
This figure, using WHO data, shows the steep gradient of increases in smoking prevalence estimates in specific African countries, where the projected increases (both sexes) in daily smoking are 5 percent and higher.
In countries that have experienced steep falls in smoking prevalence over the years, the graphs have begun to level off, for example in Australia, suggesting there remains a substantial number of people who, for whatever reason, are determined to carry on smoking. The WHO trend data to 2025 predicts only very modest falls in smoking levels in several countries and predicts some rapid increases, mainly in Africa, the Middle East, some parts of Eastern Europe and republics of the former Soviet Union. Some of the more extreme examples include Cameroon (from 14 percent to 43 percent); Republic of Congo (from 14 percent to 48 percent) and Bahrain (from 25 percent to 60 percent).
