Infographic description

The title of the infographic is "Cigarette smoking and vaping in the 30 days before the survey, by age group, 2019 to 2022"

This infographic is comprised of four line charts sharing the same y-axis.

The y-axis represents the prevalence as a percentage.

The y-axis starts at 0 and goes to 25.

The x-axis represents the year.

The x-axis starts at 2019 and goes to 2022.

Each of the four charts presents data for different age groups.

The first chart presents youth, aged 15 to 19 years.

The second chart presents young adults, aged 20 to 24 years.

The third chart presents adults, aged 25 years and older.

The fourth chart presents all age groups, aged 15 years and older.
