History of the Surgeon Generals Warnings
Its Never too Late to Quit
.
.
(CNN) -- Fifty years ago, smoking was linked to cancer in the first
surgeon general's report on tobacco.
.
On Friday, Dr. Boris Lushniak, the acting surgeon general, issued the 32nd
report on tobacco, saying "enough is enough." His goal: eliminating the
use of cigarettes and tobacco.
.
In 1964, when Dr. Luther Terry released the first surgeon general's
report, the public learned smoking causes lung cancer. At the time, 42% of
American adults smoked, Lushniak says.
.
Since then, "Tobacco has killed more than 20 million people prematurely,"
says Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, in the forward to the new report.
.
The number of smokers has dropped to 18% in 2012, according to the latest
estimates published Thursday by the CDC.
.
But "that still translates into 45 million people, including 3 million
kids," Lushniak says. "One out of three cancers is caused by tobacco (and
other smoking products)."
.
Even though the number of smokers has gone down, the figures of those
dying from disease linked to tobacco products are up.
.
While 440,000 people died from smoking-related causes in 2008, that number
has risen to 480,000 people dying each year, according to the report.
.
And even though the latest data suggests 87% of lung cancer deaths are
caused by smoking and secondhand smoke, more smokers age 35 and older die
from heart disease than lung cancer.
.
Another alarming milestone, according to the report, is that women have
caught up to men and for the first time are just as likely as men to die
from smoking-related diseases.
.
What's new
.
Thirteen cancers are now linked to smoking and secondhand smoke. Liver and
colorectal cancer are added in this report. So far, there's not enough
evidence to say smoking causes breast cancer. Smoking does not cause
prostate cancer, according to existing evidence, according to the report.
.
Another finding: "Exposure to secondhand smoke is a cause of stroke,"
according to the report. People who don't smoke themselves but are exposed
to secondhand smoke have a 20% to 30% increased risk for a stroke.

Foreword
.
Fifty years have passed since publication of the landmark report of the
Surgeon Generals Advisory Committee on smoking and health. This report
highlights both the dramatic progress our nation has made reducing tobacco
use and the continuing burden of disease and death caused by smoking.
.
As a physician, when I think about smoking, I recall the patients I have
cared for. The man who had a leg amputated. The woman who had to gasp for
every single breath that she took. The man with heart disease who hoped to
see his son graduate, but didnt live long enough to do so. Thats the
reality of smoking that health care providers see every day.
.
The prevalence of current cigarette smoking among adults has declined from
42% in 1965 to 18% in 2012. However, more than 42 million Americans still
smoke. Tobacco has killed more than 20 million people prematurely since
the first Surgeon Generals report in 1964.
.
The findings in this report show that the decline in the prevalence of
smoking has slowed in recent years and that burden of smoking-
attributable mortality is expected to remain at high and unacceptable
levels for decades to come unless urgent action is taken.
.
Recent surveys monitoring trends in tobacco use indicate that more people
are using multiple tobacco products, particularly youth and young adults.
The percentage of U.S. middle and high school students who use electronic,
or e-cigarettes, more than doubled between 2011 and 2012. We need to
monitor patterns of use of an increasingly wide array of tobacco products
across all of the diverse segments of our society, particularly because
the tobacco industry continues to introduce and market new products that
establish and maintain nicotine addiction.
.
Tobacco control efforts need to not only address the general population,
but also to focus on populations with a higher prevalence of tobacco use
and lower rates of quitting. These populations include people from some
racial/ethnic minority groups, people with mental illness, lower
educational levels and socioeconomic status, and certain regions of the
country. We now have proven interventions and policies to reduce tobacco
initiation and use among youth and adults.
.
With intense use of proven interventions, we can save lives and reduce
health care costs. In 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) launched the first-ever paid national tobacco education campaign to
raise awareness of the harms to health caused by smoking, encourage
smokers to quit, and encourage nonsmokers to protect themselves and their
families from exposure to secondhand smoke. It pulled back the curtain in
a way that numbers alone cannot, and showed the tobacco-caused tragedies
that we as health care professionals see and are saddened by every day. As
a result of this campaign, an estimated 1.6 million smokers made an
attempt to quit and, based on a conservative estimate, at least 100,000
smokers quit for good. Additionally, millions of nonsmokers talked with
friends and family about the dangers of smoking and referred smokers to
quit services. In 2013, CDC launched a new round of advertisements that
helped even more people quit smoking by highlighting the toll that
smoking-related illnesses take on smokers and their loved ones.
CDC has also established reducing tobacco use as one of its Winnable
Battles. These are public health priorities with large-scale impact on
health that have proven effective strategies to address them. CDC believes
that with additional effort and support for evidence-based, cost-effective
policy and program strategies to reduce tobacco use, we can reduce smoking
substantially, prevent millions of people from being killed by tobacco,
and protect future generations from smoking.
.
ii
.
While we have made tremendous progress over the past 50 years, sustained
and comprehensive efforts are needed to prevent more people from having to
suffer the pain, disability, disfigurement, and death that smoking causes.
Most Americans who have ever smoked have already quit, and most smokers
who still smoke want to quit. If we continue to implement tobacco
prevention and cessation strategies that have proven effective in reducing
tobacco use, people throughout our country will live longer, healthier,
more productive lives.

Preface
from the Acting Surgeon General,
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
On January 11, 1964, Luther L. Terry, M.D., the 9th Surgeon General of the
United States, released the first report on the health consequences of
smoking: Smoking and Health: Report of the Advisory Committee of the
Surgeon General of the Public Health Service.
.
That report marked a major step to reduce the adverse impact of tobacco
use on health worldwide.
.
Over the past 50 years, 31 Surgeon Generals reports have utilized the best
available evidence to expand our understanding of the health consequences
of smoking and involuntary exposure to tobacco smoke. The conclusions from
these reports have evolved from a few causal associations in 1964 to a
robust body of evidence documenting the health consequences from both
active smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke across a range of diseases
and organ systems.
.
The 2004 report concluded that smoking affects nearly every organ of the
body, and the evidence in this report provides even more support for that
finding. A half century after the release of the first report, we continue
to add to the long list of diseases caused by tobacco use and exposure to
tobacco smoke.
.
This report finds that active smoking is now causally associated with
age-related macular degeneration, diabetes, colorectal cancer, liver
cancer, adverse health outcomes in cancer patients and survivors,
tuberculosis, erectile dysfunction, orofacial clefts in infants, ectopic
pregnancy, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammation, and impaired immune
function. In addition, exposure to secondhand smoke has now been causally
associated with an increased risk for stroke.
.
Smoking remains the leading preventable cause of premature disease and
death in the United States. The science contained in this and prior
Surgeon Generals reports provide all the information we need to save
future generations from the burden of premature disease caused by tobacco
use
.
However, evidence-based interventions that encourage quitting and prevent
youth smoking continue to be underutilized. This report strengthens our
resolve to work together to accelerate and sustain what workssuch as
hard-hitting media campaigns, smokefree air policies, optimal tobacco
excise taxes, barrier-free cessation treatment, and comprehensive
statewide tobacco control programs funded at CDC-recommended levels. At
the same time, we will explore end game strategies that support the goal
of eliminating tobacco smoking, including greater restrictions on sales.
.
It is my sincere hope that 50 years from now we wont need another Surgeon
Generals report on smoking and health, because tobacco-related disease and
death will be a thing of the past. Working together, we can make that
vision a reality.
