Overview of Cigarette Smoking Prevalence and Cessation Efforts Among English Adults
This report provides insights into cigarette smoking prevalence among all adults in England, highlighting estimates and confidence intervals. It details the decrease in smoking prevalence, the percentage of adults who stopped smoking in the past year, and the attempts to quit among current smokers. Success rates for those who tried to quit are also analyzed. Data was collected through monthly household surveys of approximately 1800 adults (16+ years old) in England, conducted by TNS/BMRB and later by IPSOS MORI.
