Tobacco smoking is the leading preventable cause of
death and disease in Australia. In 2018, tobacco
smoking was responsible for more than 20,500 deaths,
or 13% of total deaths from all causes, and 8.6% of
total burden of disease and injury in Australia was due
to tobacco use, making it the leading risk factor that
contributed to disease burden and deaths.
This factsheet provides a summary of smoking
