First source of nicotine
Youth experiment with vaping and smoking.
If youth experiment with vaping first then they are 20 times less likely to become a smoker compared to if they experiment with cigarettes first.
Vaping is interrupting the next generation of smokers!
Less than 1% of TLV
Unlike 100 years ago when smoking came around, science has analyzed thousands of chemicals.
All of those chemicals have been tested for safety to establish Threshold Limit Values (TLV).
Vapour was compared to TLV and passed with flying colours.
Ingredients in eliquid
Over 7000 harmful chemicals are produced when the chemically laden cigarette is burned including:
carbon monoxide
hydrogen cyanide
hydrocarbons
nitrous oxide
free redicals
radioactive compounds
arsenic
phenols
69 carcinogens
These aren't found in vapour.
San Fran Ban
Harm reduction started during the 80's AIDS crisis.
The gay population started using condoms to lower their risk.
Ironically, a city with a high gay population banned harm reduction for the most preventable cause of disease & death of its constituents!
American Lung Association
The thing about a trusted source of information is that once that source is found to be deceiving about something, they lose credibility.
The American Lung Assoc. was founded in 1904 & their mission has changed as it now includes anti-harm reduction.
Who promotes harm reduction?
When authority describes a product, the public believe it's accurate because they trust authority.
When you compare the definition of an e-cigarette from a dictionary vs the CDC, it's very clear that the CDC (authority) has distorted the definition.
Devastating health effects
The American Cancer Society (ACS) makes hundreds of millions of dollars a year because people get cancer which ensures funding and donations to ACS.
Vaping has o.5% the risk for cancer compared to smoking.
ACS doesn't want smokers switching to vaping.
Fake news
The UK is pro-vaping because their health community reviewed the science on vaping & concluded the obvious: vaping is a fraction the risk of smoking & helps smokers quit.
The lies about 2019 lung injuries in the US, even misinformed the people in the UK.
Robert Redfield quote
Despite the overwhelming evidence that vaping is minuscule in harm compared to smoking, health authorities such as the CDC are saying very scary things about it.
They even blame vaping nicotine for a death unrelated to vaping nicotine.
Once a liar...
Mackie deception
PROMOTING HARM:
In 2019, Dr. Mackie, gave interviews on the vaping-related lung injuries.
He wrongly blamed the injuries on vaping nicotine; the injuries were from vaping street level drugs.
How many vapers went back to smoking because of what he said?
THC carts contaminated
Vitamin E acetate found in black market THC cartridges was the cause of the lung injuries in 2019.
It was not found in the nicotine eliquids that the patients were vaping.
Media and health authorities convinced the public it was the nicotine eliquid.
US reduced youth smoking uptake
Since vaping has been mainstream, naturally, youth are experimenting with it because they try all adult taboos.
As a result, US youth smoking rates are dropping faster than ever before!
Looks like vaping is interrupting the next generation of smokers.
Vape shop in UK hospital
Since 2016, the UK has been successfully helping smokers quit by promoting a tobacco harm reduction strategy: vaping.
A vape shop was opened in a hospital to encourage smokers to switch.
Vaping, but not smoking, is permitted on most hospital grounds
Quote Cancer Research UK
Every scientific method available has been used to analyze vapour for toxins.
Every method used has found that vapour is not toxic nor harmful to bystanders.
Yet, authority is not sharing this information with the public.
Who is authority serving?
First case of EVALI in Canada
Lipoid pneumonia is caused from inhaling fats such as mineral oil.
Commercially available eliquid in Canada is regulated by the Canadian government and oils are not allowed to be put into eliquid.
But that didn't stop Mackie from blaming eliquid.
Payments for tobacco prevention
Since 1998, 4 tobacco companies make annual payments to state gov'ts due to the Master Settlement Agreement (MSA).
Gov'ts argued they needed the money to cover smoking damages & prevention.
Conveniently, the MSA doesn't specify how to spend the money
Quote British Lung Foundation
Lung diseases are VERY profitable for pharmaceutical companies.
These companies fund universities, politicians, health-related nonprofits, health authorities and media.
What motivation would all these agencies have to deceive the public about vaping?
Lung injuries primary cause
Lung samples of people who were diagnosed with EVALI (2019 vaping-related lung disease) were analyzed.
All of the samples tested positive for fat based substances found in illegal THC cartridges.
These substances aren't found in nicotine eliquid.
MSA bonds
Cigarettes have a "sin" tax to offset the cost to society such as hospital visits & disability claims.
Vaping doesn't cause the damage smoking does so if smokers switch, smoking costs are reduced.
Gov'ts tax vaping which deters smokers from switching.
Misleading media
Why doesn't the public know the truth about vaping?
Why is every nonprofit, health authority and expert in North America is saying the exact same narrative about vaping without any debate even though there is new science every day?
