Smokers' Luck
Here's the good news. Three out of four smokers do not die of smoking-related diseases. They may find it difficult to breathe and may have circulatory problems, but do live long enough to die of something else. And lung cancer and bronchitis deaths are down.
The bad news is that heart disease in middle age has increased - possibly due to carbon monoxide, and that deaths among women are still going up. The UK is a world-leader, with some 200 smoking-related deaths a day - and Scotland is top of the local league.
Is there any way of predicting who will live and who will die? Seventy per cent of smokers would like to give up. If they do, will that take them out of the game? Or is the die already cast?
