In this presentation explores how cigarette consumption has been regularly declining for over 50 years and will further decline with the advent of new policies such as new FDA pictorial warnings on cigarette packs and bans on the sales of combusted tobacco products and the increased popularity of vaping products. It will also discuss e-cigarettes and the COVID-19 pandemic.
