В Индии текущая распространённость курения среди взрослых в возрасте 15 лет и старше в 2024 году оценивалась в 9,3%, что отражает рост по сравнению с 8,1% в 2020 году. Распространённость курения среди взрослых мужчин значительно выше и составила 16,7% в 2024 году по сравнению с 1,4% среди взрослых женщин. Такое гендерное различие наблюдается стабильно: в 2020 году этот показатель среди мужчин составлял 14,4%, среди женщин – 1,40%. Общее число людей, которые курят, в 2024 году составило примерно 100,2 миллиона человек, что нарастает по сравнению с 80 481 112 в 2020 году. Для справки: распространённость ежедневного курения среди взрослых в 2017 году составляла 8,6%, при этом среди мужчин она достигала 15,2%, а среди женщин — 1,7%. Смертность, связанная с курением, по-прежнему остаётся серьёзной проблемой для здравоохранения в Индии: в 2021 году было зафиксировано 1 048 266 смертей, что составляет 8,92% всех случаев смерти в стране. Из этого числа среди женщин зарегистрировано 233 679 случаев (4,59% всех смертей среди женщин), у мужчин — 814 587 (12,23% всех смертей среди мужчин). Эти данные подчёркивают продолжающиеся вызовы для системы общественного здравоохранения, связанные с употреблением табака, и указывают на необходимость эффективных мер для снижения распространённости курения и сопутствующей смертности.

Снижение вреда от табака: актуальная проблема для Азии
Harry Shapiro
В центре внимания этого брифинга GSTHR — Азия. В этом регионе проживает 60 процентов курильщиков мира, и здесь происходит почти половина всех смертей от курения в мире. В Азии также проживают девять из каждых десяти пользователей бездымного табака (SLT), что приводит к высокому уровню заболеваемости раком полости рта. В ряде стран общественное здравоохранение серьёзно подрывается из-за того, что правительства либо контролируют отечественные табачные компании, либо имеют в них значительную долю. Для устранения угрозы общественному здоровью, связанной с курением и употреблением табака, необходимы новые решения, однако более безопасные никотиновые продукты запрещены во многих странах. Улучшит ли снижение вреда от табака общественное здоровье в Азии? И если да, то какие препятствия стоят на его пути?
Официальное мероприятие по запуску брифинга состоялось онлайн в воскресенье, 18 апреля 2021 года, и было организовано совместно с Association of Vapers India.
Countries With the Highest Number of Current Tobacco Smokers
- Burning Issues: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2020
This figure illustrates how almost half the world’s smokers (46%) live in just three countries. China has the largest number of current smokers at 290 million, followed by India at 116 million and Indonesia at 61 million. Together, these countries account for 467 million smokers.
Around the world high levels persist, despite major global initiatives led by WHO to reduce smoking – and despite the investment of millions of dollars in tobacco control to reduce the demand for and supply of tobacco (See Chapter 5 of the report: Burning Issues: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2020). Average levels of smoking at a national level hide significant differences in the levels of smoking between males and females. Almost one third of men (30 percent) globally smoke compared with 10 percent of women.
According to WHO data for 2018, the prevalence of current tobacco smoking among men in 35 countries is above 40 per cent. This ranges from a staggering 69 percent in Kiribati, to 50 percent in Albania, Cyprus, Kyrgyzstan and Latvia, 45 percent in Greece, Mongolia and Republic of Moldova and 41 percent in Ukraine, the Russian Federation, Bangladesh and Samoa.
In a few high-prevalence countries, the level of female smoking is higher than the male smoking levels found in lower prevalence countries for example, in Kiribati, Nauru, Chile and Serbia, over 40 percent of women smoke compared to 78 other countries where less than 30 percent of men smoke. In some indigenous communities, such as the Māori, more women smoke than men (see Chapter 7 of the report: Burning Issues: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction 2020). There is some evidence that for cultural or social reasons in some countries, there may be under-reporting of female smoking.
