The above drug related deaths pal into insignificance if we consider the sheer numbers
of Australian tobacco related deaths (2004-2005 for example)


"Summary
Smoking-related diseases killed 14,900 Australians in 2004-05. This means there were 40 preventable deaths every day. Major tobacco-related diseases include cancer, heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Smoking kills more men than women, and smoking rates are higher among people in the most disadvantaged socioeconomic group, people with a lower level of education and people who live in rural areas."
