* Data are based on "yes" responses to the following BRFSS question: "Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life?" Respondents who answered "yes" were then asked, "Do you now smoke every day, some days, or not at all?" People who reported smoking at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and smoking now every day or some days were defined as current smokers. Data are for adults >18 years, are age–adjusted to the 2000 U.S. population, and are weighted for the probability of sampling.
