Any specific reasoning here? My understanding is that virtually all recent vaping injuries were caused by grey-market oil-soluble (e.g. THC) products, not from water-soluble nicotine products.
Do you have data/studies suggesting the claimed extreme danger of vaping commercially available nicotine products (especially considering their obvious use as smoking cessation aids)?
- catalogia 7y agoFor peddling addictions to children.
- on_and_off 7y agoThey aggressively market kids, making all their spiel about caring about reducing cancer deaths completely bullshit (as if there was ever any doubt). Sadly vaping becoming trendy among kids has had the consequence of deleting a lot of the progress made in underage smoking. Because yes, after starting with vaping, kids are way more likely to move on to cigarettes afterwards. What makes me really mad is that it does not seem like it would have been extremely hard to do not market to kids. That's an extremely low bar and that's already too much for scummy companies like juul.
- WilliamEdward 7y agoIt's an observation based on addiction to nicotine (especially in children) and not the direct health risks, so i can see why i confused you, sorry.
- s1artibartfast 7y agoWould you say the same of candy, alcohol, or videogames?
- WilliamEdward 7y agoYes absolutely, but the degree to which these are addictive is not the same for each, so how much action you take towards them must be on a case by case basis.
