EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
COVID-19 impact on tobacco
COVID-19 country impact
Tax hikes and higher prices result in reduced demand from some smokers, while others that find it hard to quit seek alternatives that boost illicit trade in 2019

Growing health concerns, ongoing increases in taxes, prices and tobacco regulations are expected to result in reduced smoking prevalence over the forecast period
