I am curious how these interplay. Like liver disease and lung cancer are both long term effects from chronic use. If you smoke and drink alcohol, is one more likely to kill you than the other first?

Also I would have loved to have seen the median for this figure because as an average it’s astonishing

In the United States, 70.1% of the population aged 18 and older (about 173.3 million people) consumed alcohol in 2017, averaging approximately 3.6 gallons of pure alcohol per drinker, or about 2.1 standard U.S. drinks per day
