The "study" consists of a "model" which treats dead smokers as "net population benefit" while those who quit by [HASHTAG]#vaping[/HASHTAG] as "net population harm" and predictably "concludes" ecigs are bad. Essentially the glANTZ terrorist is inciting the cold, calculated [HASHTAG]#DeskMurder[/HASHTAG] of 45M Americans for fear a single non-smoker might choose to enjoy a harmless vape every now and again.

There's a link on the page to a new editorial, that seems to be intended to be a companion to the study. The preview, among other stupidity, states their objection to flavors making the product more enjoyable, and calling for the FDA to ban them for that reason. Not a claim of attracting children, or dangers of inhaling flavors, but because they are enjoyable (though a bit later they throw in the additional worry of flavors that attract children).
Here's the sentence:
"The proposed rule, however, does not address marketing to people younger than 18 years, the use of menthols and other flavors in e-cigarettes that make the produce (sic) more appealing, child safety issues, or prohibit the use of the devices in places that are smoke-free."
