Human respiratory tissue test reveals e-cigarette vapour produced similar result as air

[VictorC]

"The results show that cigarette smoke reduces cell viability to 12% (near complete cell death) after six hours. In contrast, neither of the e-cigarette aerosols showed any significant decrease in cell viability. Despite 6 hours of continuous exposure, the results were similar to those of control cells exposed to only air. Even with this aggressive exposure, the e-cigarette vapours did not reduce cell viability."

I believe that article is based on a Study that BAT published last year.
