TY - JOUR T1 - AChieving worldwide tobacco control AU - Brundtland G Y1 - 2000/08/09 N1 - 10.1001/jama.284.6.750 JO - JAMA SP - 750 EP - 751 VL - 284 IS - 6 N2 - Fifty years ago, THE JOURNAL published 2 articles1- 2 that were among the first of what was to become a deluge of epidemiological studies linking tobacco use to adverse health outcomes. These early studies on tobacco and disease established the basis for assessing disease causality and led to the conclusion that tobacco use is directly responsible for more than 25 causes of death.3 In the last 2 decades, this epidemiological evidence for disease causation has been complemented by evidence of economic harm.
