Adults Who Used Electronic Cigarettes: Past 30 Days

County: Pima
Measurement Period: 2023
This indicator shows the percentage of adults who used electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) or vapes in the past 30 days.

Why is this important?

Tobacco is the agent most responsible for avoidable illness and death in America today. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, tobacco use brings premature death to almost half a million Americans each year, and it contributes to profound disability and pain in many others. The World Health Organization states that approximately one-third of all tobacco users in this country will die prematurely because of their dependence on tobacco. Areas with a high smoking prevalence will also have greater exposure to secondhand smoke for non-smokers, which can cause or exacerbate a wide range of adverse health effects such as cancer, respiratory infections, and asthma.
