  • Tobacco Use, Ethnicity and Health
    Tobacco use, ethnicity and health June 2014 Key points: • 4% of Scotland’s population is from a minority ethnic group • minority ethnic groups often have poorer health than the general population, although in Scotland this is not the case for all-cancers and common cancers • ethnic inequalities in health tend to be neglected in policy discussions and omissions in routine data collection may compound this • smoking is one of the major contributors to health inequalities • there are many interlinked factors involved in ethnic health inequalities but lower socio-economic status (which is itself an influence on tobacco use) may be the most important. This specialist briefing is aimed at professionals and policy makers. It provides a short overview of the evidence surrounding tobacco use, ethnicity and health. Scotland’s minority ethnic population is low (4%1). Minority ethnic populations are generally characterised as being disproportionately affected by death and disease2, although the Scottish Health and Ethnicity Linkage Cohort Study3 suggests that for all-cancers and the common cancers this is not so. What is certain is that ethnic inequalities in health tend to be neglected in policy discussions4. Smoking is the main preventable lifestyle factor, particularly for cancer, respiratory and cardiovascular diseases5, and the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence6 has suggested that reducing tobacco consumption among minority groups would reduce health inequalities more than any other measure. The Medical Research Council at the University of Glasgow has noted that ethnic minorities are often under- represented in research7, although successful engagement can be achieved 1 using culturally appropriate strategies8.
