Please stay away from smoking

Hello Steemit
Smoking in all its forms, such as cigarettes and purple, is harmful to health and the environment; it causes many diseases to smokers and those around them, pollutes the environment, harms the individual's budget, raises health care costs and hinders economic development. WHO studies indicate that smoking causes about 6 million deaths per year, more than 83 percent of which are caused by direct smoking, while more than 16 percent of deaths are caused by passive smoking. Many communities need to raise awareness of the dangers of smoking, intensify programs to help smokers quit smoking, and studies show that few people are aware of health risks from tobacco use. A 2009 study in China found that only 38% Smokers understand that smoking causes coronary heart disease, and only 27% know it causes stroke. On the other hand, only 15% of the world's population has comprehensive national cessation services with full or partial coverage costs .
