The above video was also shared showing the serious effects of smoking. Accompanying the video are footnotes warning about the harmful effects of tobacco, such as: "More than 80% of lung cancer cases are thought to come from tobacco" , or "This is a picture of the lungs of a smoker for 15 years with large black spots, smokers' lungs for 30 years are even more terrible, they are covered by a layer of substances that are likely to cause cancer ".

More than 80% of lung cancers are thought to stem from tobacco or smoke.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), China is the largest producer and consumer of tobacco in the world.

There are about 300 million people smoking in China, that is, of the 3 cigarettes smoked in the world, there is one from China. Besides, there are about 700 million people in this country often exposed to cigarette smoke. More than 1 million Chinese people die each year from tobacco and more than 100,000 people die as a result of cigarette smoke. This is equivalent to having a Chinese person die from tobacco every 30 seconds and nearly 3,000 people a day.

Despite government bans, there are still about 300 million Chinese people smoking.For every 3 cigarettes smoked, there is 1 cigarette from China.

WHO warns that if the use of tobacco in China does not decrease, 3 million people will die each year in tobacco in 2050 in China.
