California THR

California THR is a group of citizens & business professionals fighting for rights of Californians who use vapor products as less harmful alternative to tobacco

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

BRAVE is strongly opposed to “smoking” ban ballot initiative which will ban vaping and sampling in vape shops. https://t.co/wMauUJcBA7 @sarahfenske #stlouis #stcharles #missouri #smokingban #vaping

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

Thank you @ashley_godwin for removing misinformation from your JUUL story. The most important thing to note is that vapor products are much safer than continuing to smoke. We applaud Missouri DHSS @HealthyLivingMo for recognizing that distinction. #MOleg @AVABoard

Want flavored e-liquid to stay on your local shops shelves? it’s time to act! This is the last day for public comments on the issue so make sure your voice is heard!

Missouri department of health should immediately retract.

#juul is a real threat to big tobacco and Pharma sales. Ask @AGIowa #RethinkNicotine https://t.co/Tnh51eOJTs

[John Tierney @JohnTierneyNYC]

Smoking rate hits all-time low but activists are trying to reverse the trend by fighting Juul, the e-cigarette that's decimating the tobacco industry. My City Journal piece: https://t.co/lgUuGnCZG6

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

Let’s not forget ridiculous. “knock tobacco out of ballpark“
Smokeless tobacco doesn’t cause harm to bystanders, and vaping doesn’t even have tobacco. Rescind ludicrous ordinance and bring back fans. #vaping #snus #tobacco @LydaKrewson @Cardinals #STLCards https://t.co/Den0jHWJqc

@aatclc Unfortunately it took away the option of vapor products which are 95% less harmful than cigarettes. Flavors play an integral role in people making the switch. #harmreduction

@AGIowa @FDATobacco Combustibles always create carcinogens no matter how much nicotine is in them

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

@ARB648 Vaping is now endorsed by the American Cancer Society, Royal College of Physicians, Public Health England and Cancer UK to help smokers quit and reduce their harm

[VapingIT, SPE, EEI @Vapingit]

@truthinitiative 🛑Stop manipulating numbers.

"For 2017, the percentage of adults aged 18 and over who were current cigarette smokers was 13.9%" ~ NCHS, National Health Interview Survey

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

The @NAPOpolice should encourage comments on FDA docket. Lowering nicotine in cigarettes creates black markets and criminal activity. #tobacco https://t.co/rjsnkYPJhd

[BRAVE Advocates🗣 @BRAVEmediaMO]

The consumer advocates for smoke free alternatives strongly oppose Tobacco 21 legislation. @CASAAmedia https://t.co/3el5PemjB0 #tobacco21 #MoLeg #vaping #MnLeg #Snus

Good read . . . and thanks to all of you who helped provide the data for this important research. <3

"adults have initiated e-cigarette use with non-tobacco flavors and to have transitioned from tobacco to non-tobacco flavors over time"

"The IQOS heated tobacco product emits substantially lower levels of carbonyls than a commercial tobacco cigarette (Marlboro Red) but higher levels than a Nautilus Mini e-cigarette" by @FarsalinosK

@FDATobacco @SGottliebFDA I am not an anecdote. Vaping is the only thing that allowed me to quit smoking for good. I quit with mango papaya. #notananecdote #vapingsavedmylife

[Clive Bates @Clive_Bates]

This destroys the youth-based narrative and political foundations of @FDATobacco’s ‘tough-guy’ stance on vaping. They might be doing harm to youth as well as to adults. And it certainly can’t show it would not cause harm - especially given the rapid declines in youth smoking. 5/7

[Clive Bates @Clive_Bates]

Unacceptable on what ethical basis? @fdatobacco surely recognises the reality-based world of youth doing risky things, whatever FDA wants? When kids who would otherwise have smoked take to #vaping instead, there is a clear public health benefit. Preventing that causes harm. 1/7 https://t.co/sIqK9AvZVQ
