Turns out the disposable nicotine delivery systems are, as suspected, worse than the real thing, according to a new study from researchers at UC Davis.
They’re worse in one particular way, which isn’t the most significant way that cigarettes cause harm. They’re not worse overall. Vaping has been a major public-health success story, and it’s odd to see people trying to discourage it with misleading headlines. The perfect is the enemy of the good here.
Yeah except smoking rates have increased since the invention of vapes. It if was strickly people smoking cigarettes swapping to vapes then maybe we could call it a success
I admit I don’t see people vaping as a major problem. The harm is not so severe that it overcomes my inclination to let people make their own choices. This is especially so when the harm is not intrinsic to the act but rather the result of contamination.
They’re also a worse pollutant. Policies that favor disposable vapes over refillable ones are a travesty but ultimately disposable vapes are far more profitable for big tobacco.
Tobacco / Nicotine lobbyist AI, right? You guys are making billions from all the addicts slowly killing themselves. As long as they stay alive long enough to turn a profit though.

You can always count on the tobacco companies to turn a useful tool into something evil.

And they’re talking about cheap Chinese gas station vapes here. If you use quality coils, there won’t be lead at all.

I wouldn’t mind your favorite cupcake recipe
Unlike an AI, I don’t actually know how to make cupcakes.

Oh really, guess I’ll go back to cigarettes then.
