Just another paid propagandist. Pharma pays the bills, pharma dictates the storyline. It's like communist state propaganda, if your job depends on toeing the party line, that's what you do - right or wrong.
Harvard must get plenty of donations from pharma to make it worthwhile advising a course of action that has up to a 49% chance of death, and making yourself look a complete fool by ignoring the opinions and research of many senior colleagues, and the two and a half decades of research from Sweden that show not only that
tobacco harm reduction is safe and highly effective but that it is orders of magnitude better in every way than NRT treatments.
In addition, any description of pharma-assisted quitting as 'safe' or 'effective' must qualify as an outright lie if originating from a medical professional, since they must be well aware the success rate is extremely low and that some treatments are dangerous.
Chantix is reported to have caused around 62,500 heart attacks, suicides and murders in the US last year. There just isn't any possible way to compare it with e-cigarettes, which have caused no deaths. Chantix is 62,500 times more dangerous. The idea that its use is supported by medical professionals is not just astounding, it is probably the biggest scandal in existence.
Doctors who support the use of useless and dangerous drugs such as this should not just be fired, they should be imprisoned.
