SimSmoke simulation models distinguished by race/ethnicity: past and future trends and the potential role of policy
The models predict large differences in levels and rates of decline in NHW, NHB, and Hispanic smoking prevalence, leading to widening health disparities between racial/ethnic groups. Further study is needed on differential race/ethnicity impacts of tobacco control policies and the role of cigars, e-cigarettes, and other product use.
