WHO report on the global tobacco epidemic 2021: addressing new and emerging products

The eighth WHO report on the global tobacco epidemic tracks the progress made by countries in tobacco control since 2008 and, for the first time, presents data on electronic nicotine delivery systems, such as ‘e-cigarettes’. The report shows that many countries are making progress in the fight against tobacco, but some are not addressing emerging nicotine and tobacco products and failing to regulate them.
