Have lung cancer incidence decreased since people begun to smoke much less than years before


Have lung cancer incidence decreased since people begun to smoke much less than years before?
If we consider, number of smokers/1000 people you will find that 25 or 30 years ago, people used to smoke much more than nowadays. Why Health Authorities never publish figures showing a decrease in the lung cancer incidence, if any.

I was on a debate a few days ago on this very topic. I feel its the awareness that has brought about the change and the awareness has come around with a lot of campaigns against smoking on TV and other media. Cigarette Companies are no longer invited to sponser sports or the atheletes to wear their logos. There has been a huge hue and cry about the problems related to smoking and one can actually see and read about it. This was not so say even about 15 years ago. Its not that there was not awareness - but it was not pushed so much. Cigarette companies ruled almost everything that was connected to our lives.

No stats because they don't want you to know that one of the main causes of cancer is vaccination.
