How the anti-vaping groups are resorting to corruption/bribery to push their agendas, including in India.

The ultimate WHO absurdity - awarding a medal to someone whose actions will kill millions of Indian smokers who would like to switch to safer alternatives yet can't bec he banned them!

Are there any scientists left in WHO drug policy ? @Drug_Science @WHO

Claims that nicotine damages the developing brain are largely false & rely on a handful of rodent studies. If youth nicotine experimentation caused brain damage, we’d see this in generations of older adults who began use as adolescents.

At funvocacy, @samrat6 says although it's said that nicotine is more addictive than heroine, heroine users are not told to quit on their own will power, but tobacco users are.

Second-hand smoke kills. Second-hand vaping is orders of magnitude less harmful. Vaping could prevent millions of deaths from second-hand smoke.

Quitting smoking with vaping is 2x more successful than nicotine gums. Don't deprive adult smokers of this great harm reduction tool.

Vaping is to smoking what current vaccines are to Covid-19. A harm reduction tool. Vaping can put an end to the tobacco smoking pandemic!

We do young people a disservice when we equate nicotine risks with smoking risks. A generation of youth who believe there is no meaningful difference between smoking nicotine and vaping it would be a public health disaster.

Cigarettes kill millions of people every year. Moral crusades against tobacco aren't working. We need real-world solutions to smoking related death and disease. We need harm reduction.

Dear @ravikishann, on #WorldVapeDay, would you like to share with the nation the scientific proof of what you said in Lok Sabha regarding “crystals” in e-cig?

The evidence is clear that second hand smoke exposure is harmful. To date, there are no identified health risks of second hand vaping to the health of bystanders. Vaping could prevent millions of deaths from second-hand smoke.

“Among participants with 1-year abstinence, those in the e-cigarette group were more likely than those in the nicotine-replacement group to use their assigned product at 52 weeks (80% vs. 9%)”

We consumers are the casualties of “war on smoking”, which we is fuelled by blind hatred of the tobacco industry, and implicit disgust for people who use tobacco. Our lives matter too.

Nicotine policy and laws are being unduly influenced by flawed science, anti-harm reduction lobbying, and sensational news exaggerating the risks of vaping.

Evidence shows that vaping is twice as effective as traditional nicotine replacement therapy for smoking cessation. This is a legitimate solution to the smoking problem. Stop fighting it.

Vaping products do not:
produce smoke
contain tobacco
involve combustion

Vaping products typically contain:
nicotine isolated from tobacco
a fraction of the thousands of chemicals found in tobacco smoke

Unlike patches, pills & hotlines, vaping is an existential threat to smoking. The war on vaping helps Big Tobacco & protects a status quo where 8M people die from smoking each year. Anti-vaping crusades are pro-death.

I am an adult. I have the right to make a less harmful choice. Please do not take away this right from me. Bring strong laws to prevent youth vaping, but don’t punish 10 crore Indian smokers.
