Pakastani doctors make false and misleading claims about e-cigarettes

E-cigarette: Put this in your pipe and smoke it – The Express Tribune

I've sent Javaid Khan most e-cigarette research during the past five years, but he's an abstinence-only prohibitionist who also opposes smokers switching to smokeless tobacco.

The people who use the electronic cigarette don’t seem to mind looking foppish while sucking on what basically looks like a colourful pen whose tip lights up. For what else is this new-fangled ‘gadget’ than just a neutered version of its carcinogenic prototype?

The e-cigarette, which is slowly turning up in mouths across main cities in Pakistan, is designed to behave just like the tobacco one but with one major difference: You don’t need a match. There is no lighting up and no smoke. This does, however, kill the theatrical production of leaning forward to light up and nonchalantly exhaling.
