    It is good

    There's a thread that discusses that research here - A germ-killing vapor

    And Leaford discovered some more good news on pg that is mentioned here - PG is considered safe for inhalation by lung transplant patients

    Default Doh!!!!

    Thanks Kate...... Just reread the Time Article and noticed the tiny grey "dateline" 1942! LMAO

    If there were any question re. my "Newbness" this thread should put those questions to rest.

    From now on, when I stumble upon some Great exciting New news articles regarding e-cigs I'll PM them to you first so I may avoid all the public ridicule that is 'bout to heaped on me for starting this thread.

    Lol, hopefully you won't be ridiculed.

    There's nothing wrong with bringing these old topics back to life again. It's the nature of forums to go around in circles but with different people on board all the time.

    I bet there are a lot of new members who didn't know about this research and it's very important for us, it's the only scientific proof we have about inhaling any of our ingredients.

    Hey, I learned something new I had no idea that Time magazine archived all its old publications online. I guess I'm going to have start double checking the dates on those Time articles too, lol.

    I see that link was in TB's original thread but I had only read what he and others had to say about it. I hadn't ever actually clicked on the link till now. That and I'm a thread skimmer on some of this stuff. A refresher course never hurt anyone.

    Anyway, cool stuff man!

    For any history buffs out there here's the cover for that Nov. 1942 issue:

    Good science is good science no matter when it was conducted.

    Mike, nothing over the years since that study has negated its conclusion. It still stands that PG is a formidable germ-killer. Dr. Murray Laugesen of Health New Zealand references those studies and others in his most recent interim report on e-smoking, where he says all is well, so far, so good. PG has since been tested on even children. No harmful effects. I wish more posters here read the Health section from cover to cover ...

    so does this mean we are less likely to get sick since we vape all the time ?
    (from airborne viruses anyways)

    Dr. Robertson placed groups of mice in a chamber and sprayed its air first with propylene glycol, then with influenza virus. All the mice lived. Then he sprayed the chamber with virus alone. All the mice died.
    LOL did he really have to make sure the virus alone would kill them?
