W Erytrei palenie tytoniu ma istotny wpływ na zdrowie publiczne. Dane z 2020 roku wskazują, że 5,1% dorosłych paliło papierosy, przy czym rozpowszechnienie tego nałogu było wyższe wśród mężczyzn (10,2%), a znacznie niższe wśród kobiet (0,2%). Liczbę osób palących tytoń w 2020 roku oszacowano na 102 150, co oznacza spadek w porównaniu do 111 875 w roku 2019. Według najnowszych danych z 2021 roku, 2,83% wszystkich zgonów w kraju było związanych z przyczynami wynikającymi z palenia tytoniu. Ponadto 4,45% wszystkich zgonów mężczyzn oraz 0,87% wszystkich zgonów kobiet miało związek z paleniem. Roczna liczba zgonów przypisywanych paleniu tytoniu wyniosła w 2021 roku 1 440 (1 238 wśród mężczyzn i 201 wśród kobiet). Dla porównania, w 2016 roku odnotowano 962 zgony związane z paleniem tytoniu, co wskazuje na wyraźny wzrost w kolejnych latach. Przedstawione dane podkreślają, że palenie tytoniu pozostaje poważnym wyzwaniem dla zdrowia publicznego w Erytrei i wskazują na potrzebę dalszych działań w tym zakresie.

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).
