Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS kCooR0x7. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. We used a validated smoking simulation model and data from the 2003 Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey to project the impact that a US menthol ban would have on smoking prevalence and smoking-attributable deaths. In a scenario in which 30% of menthol smokers quit and 30% of those who would have initiated as menthol smokers do not initiate, by 2050 the relative reduction in smoking prevalence would be 9.7% overall and 24.8% for Blacks ; deaths averted would be 633252 overall and 237317 for Blacks. |
