TRANSCRIPT
1WHO REPORT ON THE GLOBAL TOBACCO EPIDEMIC, 2013
Appendix XI provides the latest and most representative data on tobacco use prevalence for WHO Member States. These data are not comparable between countries because the surveys differ in definitions (current vs daily smoking), type of tobacco product consumed (all types of tobacco, cigarettes), age range, representativeness, and survey year. International comparisons should be based on data provided in Appendix VII.
Only the latest and most representative survey from each country is provided. Most definitions represented in Appendix VIII are daily or current smoking for either all tobacco products or cigarettes. Where
Appendix xi: Country-provided prevalenCe data
these indicators were not available, other available definitions were used. Because national-level surveys generally provide data for more than one definition, reporting all definitions would have made this appendix too complex. For this reason, priority was given to daily and current smoking of tobacco products. If data on daily or current smoking of tobacco products were not available, other available definitions were included.
The data on smokeless tobacco were not fully validated by Member States and are subject to change in the future. They are provided as indicative only.
