About the Indicator: Smoking is a risk factor for many causes of death in Minnesota.  The statistics reported here include lung and bronchus cancer deaths from all causes—not just smoking-related deaths.  Cancer deaths by gender were obtained by request from the Minnesota Cancer Surveillance System (MCSS).  It is estimated that 90% of lung cancer deaths among males and 79% of lung cancer deaths among females in the United States are smoking-related.  Percent of smoking-attributable deaths may vary from one location to another.
