A little bit of good news from Sweden

Did Glantz & ANTZ help to destroy ecig ban?

So in their own special way, anti-vaping buffoon Glantz and the army of junk-science spouting “researchers” around the world have helped to prevent ecigs being banned as illegal/unlicensed medicines. It’s a delightful irony that a case whose central premise appeared to have been “These things are awesome cessation products, let’s ban them” has been rejected.

From Jessica's thread yesterday. Oh, the irony. It's sad though that the truth would have been damaging for vaping in this case.

Based on this story, it would not be recommendable to advertise vaping as a smoking cessation strategy...

Agreed!

I think it's fantastic Bill! But there's always a little black rain cloud following close behind, the TPD in this case.

Swedes still got their snus...

Special deal back then : we keep snus or we won't join the EU.

Import for personal use in small quantities is allowed, but the snus makers can't set up shop anywhere else in the EU. They didn't pay the 60 mill $ one EU honcho asked in bribes to open the whole of the EU for snus either...

Of course, it is pure coincidence that Sweden has a comparitively low percentage of smokers and an even lower percentage of cancers usually attributed to smoking

And like vaping, snus isn't harmless, but it's waaaay less harmful than lighting up a ....

Dunno where it's on the cale compared to vaping, though.

Do know that Glantz and Co should keep frothing at their mouth. Cuz if they lay it on any thicker, it will become clear to even single-digit-IQ-holders that somethin' is fishy about them and their ideas...

And the more peeps catch on that vaping isn't the evil incarnate the better for all of us...

Wish states in the US had the same choice ;- )
