Good summary - right on too!
".... I find it more important to expose the basic strategy followed in the critique, which is to mis-present science, to make arbitrary conclusions about e-cigarettes based on irrelevant citations, and to characteristically avoid mentioning that the impact on health should be assessed in relation to smoking continuation. I leave it to the readers to decide whether such comments are based on ignorance or represent an effort to deliberately misinform and produce confusion, both to regulators and to smokers. The main results (and maybe intentions?) of such a strategy are:
1. To discourage switching from
tobacco cigarettes to e-cigarettes.
2. To implement restrictions that will give a huge competitive advantage to
tobacco cigarettes."
Exactly what was being done by Glantz, and why.
