Good point. Is there a statistics about mortality in smokers vs non-smokers?

This is what I've seen so far:

There are also other hints that line up with this. The mortality rate in the recent 1000+ case study seems to be much higher in males, but the rate of smoking in China is also much higher in males, which could be a clue.
