Pomimo spadku skutków palenia tytoniu w Gabonie w ostatnich latach, statystyki dotyczące rozpowszechnienia nawyku oraz liczby zgonów wskazują na poważny problem zdrowia publicznego. W 2021 roku liczba zgonów związanych z paleniem wyniosła 501, w tym 77 wśród kobiet i 423 wśród mężczyzn. Zgony spowodowane paleniem tytoniu stanowiły 3,22% wszystkich zgonów w Gabonie w 2021 roku, przy czym odsetek ten wyniósł 1,16% wśród kobiet i 4,77% wśród mężczyzn. Oznacza to niewielki spadek w porównaniu z poprzednimi latami, gdyż w 2016 roku odnotowano 569 zgonów związanych z paleniem. Wówczas odsetek wszystkich zgonów przypisywanych paleniu był nieco wyższy i wynosił 4,56%, przy czym wśród mężczyzn osiągał 5,4%, a wśród kobiet 2,8%. Jeżeli chodzi o rozpowszechnienie palenia, w 2017 roku codzienne palenie wśród dorosłych występowało u 22,4% mężczyzn i 3,4% kobiet. Dane te podkreślają utrzymujące się obciążenie zdrowotne związane z paleniem tytoniu w Gabonie, szczególnie wśród mężczyzn, i pokazują, jak istotne jest dalsze prowadzenie działań w zakresie zdrowia publicznego, mających na celu rozwiązanie tego problemu.

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).
