I watched half a dozen of the videos so far. It was good to see Dr. F speaking again. He confirmed some of my perceptions about the heeat not burn technology. It's very different from vaping. I have zero interest and I think the tobacco companies are taking a big risk. They guy talking about health risks of nicotine is also well worth watching because he's well informed and biased towards finding risks rather than discarding them. My take away from him is he considers vaping nicotine far lower risk than smoking but if your cardiovascular health is poor vaping nic might increase the risk of problems. A couple of speakers talking about regulatory issues in Europe and the US strengthen my conviction to finish my stocking plan. Our governments are obsessed with bureauocratic navel watching. They can't get much of anything done on the merits, least of all protecting smokers from harm.
