*Policies are implemented at FCTC-consistent levels in 2015 and maintained at that level through 2055, except for excise taxes which are increased in steps from 28% of retail price in 2014 to 40% in 2015 to 60% in 2020 and 70% in 2025 and maintained at that level until 2055.
†Percent changes measured as the relative change from the status quo level [eg, (Prevalence w/policy in 2020-Prevalence w/status quo in 2020)/Prevalence w/status quo in 2020].
