Professor John Newton @PHE_uk “Thousands more could have quit except for unfounded safety fears about e-cigarettes. The evidence has been clear for some time that, while not risk-free vaping is far less harmful than smoking.” *mic drop 🎤

#Smokefreesunday I’m making it a thing. Spread the word.
@GrimmGreen I'm 41 vaping on @ECBlend mix of dragons tear and peachberry n cream! #vaping saves lives
I like it when people use this argument. The doctors you are talking about, that first discovered the link between smoking and lung cancer, are the same doctors now saying #vaping is 95% less harmful than combustible tobacco cigarettes.

@Teamlucyodie @GrimmGreen Again: this same thinking was going on in the early stages of cigarettes. After years of them being around and nobody thinking anything of it, people started to notice the effects and you will find them in time, too. Don't fool yourself.
Look at @MikeBloomberg trying as hard as he can. I would be shocked if @NHSuk or @ASH_LDN followed WHO advice on #Vaping
Can we just cancel the WHO?
"Details of the potential ban have emerged from a report published by WHO’s tobacco regulatory committee."

This is how the racist/classist War on Drugs started. “The imperative of suburban political culture made cyclical “epidemics” of pot smoking by white middle-class youth a crucial foundation of [the drug war], inspired by the grassroots mobilization of parents’ movements..." https://twitter.com/SenatorRomney/status/1365071902511927298
Our kids are getting addicted to nicotine through flavored vaping products—nearly 1/4 of high schoolers are vaping on regularly. We’ve got to get flavored vaping products off of the market and implement a robust public education campaign to warn kids about the dangers of vaping.
The narrative that “flavored vapor products are designed to lure children” is baseless, disingenuous, harmful and quite honestly, just bullshit.
All human beings enjoy flavor. We have biological systems designed to TASTE GOOD THINGS.
Flavors make quitting smoking enjoyable. https://twitter.com/OldiesTours/status/1364577139811643393
