A good article on CNN iReport. At the bottom of the article, vote "This belongs on CNN" to get more media coverage.
Linda Bauld, a professor of health policy and who is active with the World Health Organization, says these two studies have made valuable contributions to the growing literature on e-cigarettes.
“What this new research tells us is what e-cigarette users already know. The type of device, how often it is used and how much nicotine it contains all matter. Some devices will be effective to help smokers quit and others less so. Future studies need to maintain this focus and not treat all e-cigarettes, or all users, the same,” says Bauld.
A sensible piece about vaping. Didn't manage to click the "This belongs on CNN" bit as you have to sign up to CNN to do it and another login is more than I want right now.
Using FB, G+, or Disqus is easy... but these little podunk newspapers that want you to create an account just for them... um NO.Same here; these articles that force you to login just to vote or comment give me such a pain. I tweeted it instead.

CNN, well I figured they might have a few other articles I want to comment on so I went for it.
Sorry I wasn't clear - wasn't meaning to imply this is a small newspaper, I was just responding to Andria.The login is for the "iReport" section of CNN, not a small newspaper. Sorry, I should have made than more clear. As for creating an account, it was worth the 60 seconds to get the message to CNN.
Commented, voted and shared, got to get the word out to as many as possible.
Do the anti-vaping articles get an automatic green light while pro-vaping articles like this one are test marketed, first?One of the few semi-positive pieces on ecigs by CNN.... many 'exploding batts', poison, gateway, oversight overdue, etc. etc. etc.
Do the anti-vaping articles get an automatic green light while pro-vaping articles like this one are test marketed, first?

Keep it in mind that the New England Journal of Medicine is the mouthpiece of the Harvard oligarchy that controls the health establishment and the mass media. They're the problem.
Sofarsogood, that is exactly right. It is about the revenue and nothing, not one single thought in the minds of health officials or public servants leans towards public health or anything that may have a chance at benefiting it if it means a loss in revenue for their own causes or systems.
This is the thing that needs to come to light and have names attached to it, when those who are paid to serve through our tax dollars in the capacity of protecting the health of the public take positions based on the propagation of their own jobs rather than the true goal of their positions they are guilty of gross negligence of their duty and quite possibly of crimes against humanity. We are talking about levels of human harm greater than that of countries the US has sanctioned in the past for their misdeeds. The fallout here could very well see a great many of these "players" in prison for a very long time for the way they are conducting themselves in these jobs if the pressure stays up and they are taken to task when the last ball falls.
