How much more likely is a smoker to die of heart disease than lung disease? |
How much more likely is a smoker to die of heart disease than lung disease? 66% of all nonsmokers will not get ling, er lung cancer -- that's absurd. If you made me pick one I'd say heart disease kills more smokers than lung disease, although by how much I couldn't say. But smokers have a higher rate of disease incidence across the board, from cancer to heart disease to lung problems (other than cancer) like emphysema and pneumonia. At some point it's an academic argument at best about what to write on the death certificate, because our ICUs are filled with people dying of dozens of major medical problems. FAR MORE Lung cancer one of the lung disease you mention is FAR GREATER IN NON smokers 66% of NON smokers get ling cancer Bottom line...Most people die from heart failure secondary to chronic lung disease, cancer, or other conditions. |
