Coronavirus some perspective on the death toll: " more people will die, even in the worst projections, from cigarette smoking in this country than are going to die from coronavirus this year."
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "Cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 480,000 deaths per year in the United States, including more than 41,000 deaths resulting from secondhand smoke exposure. This is about one in five deaths annually, or 1,300 deaths every day."
