| Sumario: | Findings from the Health Surveys for England indicate that Bangladeshi and Black Caribbean men report higher current smoking rates than other men, while white and Black Caribbean women smoke more frequently than other women. Deprivation explains differences in current smoking rates between Bangladeshi and Black Caribbean, and white English men. The smoking rates of Pakistani men and Black Caribbean women were significantly lower than those of white English people after adjusting for socio-economic status. The smoking rates of white English, Black Caribbean and Pakistani men and Black Caribbean women appear more stable over time than those of other groups. |
