Thanks, I bookmarked that link for posterity and to print for a couple of my friends and relatives who think, "It's just like smoking". Yes, I've given them the talk and explained how it's completely different in a good way.

some people just don't listen. if the TV said that mermaids lived in Lake Michigan, they'd swear up and down that it was true.
Because vaping looks like smoking, the uninformed assume that it is smoking. That's how a lot of people's minds work. And that's not including all the misinformation and outright anti-vaping propaganda out there. Many still believe the misinformation from years ago that have already been debunked, such as popcorn lung.
Holdiing off the deeming until 2022 gives more time for scientific evidence to accumulate. Hopefully there will be a flood of new (trustworthy) science by then.
How is that the best news ever? A week ago 99.999% thought it didn't have any carcinogens at all. Gotta love the way vaping advocacy sites take bad news and make it sound amazing. Great news today I found out I have a 1 in 210,640 chance of dieing this year from a fall on and/or from stairs and steps.

Oh my God, I just thought that vaping has zero percent cancer risk of tobacco smoke, oh my God.
Yeah I never believed it didn't. Pretty sure BBQ Steak has carcinogens too but I'm not giving up red meat to begin with so why would I care lol. Even if the other report that said like 36% was correct I never quit smoking to become a healthy person, I started vaping because it was cheaper and possibly safer. The benefits and quality of life I have far from doing so far out weight what any study/report good or bad tells me.... unless its like we all start instantly dieing off in 5 years then I'll quit lol.
"A new study has found that vaping at normal power levels poses almost none of the cancer risk of inhaling tobacco smoke. It was published last week in the journal Tobacco Control."
I wonder what "normal power levels" are?
200 Watts with TC set at 600F?
LOL
yeah ive seen these studies and they're only valid if you have your e-cig vaping so hot that it crates that nasty stuff. you would instantly know before it gets that hot
Yeah I wish they would supply more info and actual data when they make all sorts of claims in reports. The "dry burn" theory has been debunked though, the same tests with unflavoured juice showed little to no nasty stuff so it wasn't dry burnt cotton. The original tests when that theory came out didn't even use cotton it used silica wicks. Nicotine inhalers showed simular results though without flavours or anyway to dry burn it so who knows whats causing it. "Normal power level" could be crazy high or crazy low watts, since its plastered on vaping sites I'd assume the latter. These same handful of doctors have been going back and forth with extreme cases for years without giving the general public the actual data in the reports. Just looking for flashy headlines while the truth is up to us to find, they could care less about us on both ends.
