Sounds about right I think. The percentage drop is probably proportionate to the amount of people that have turned to vaping.
It cracks me up that they constantly boast more than a 50% success rate for the NHS quit scheme when it's probably more like > 10%

I'm pretty certain it's E-cigs. Not sure anything else could account for a drop in NHS customers and Big Pharma  |

In my opinion, I think that we can reasonably assume that we vapers have to have had some significant impact on the 'quit smoking' figures, it seems a logical thing to assume to me anyway, as many of us are now being re-classed as non-smokers by our GP's!  |

i think its vapers thats done it! less setting a quit date but more quitting.
in my personal experience, i know of at least 4 people who have bypassed the NHS cessation methods and gone straight to vaping
vaping works. wish the big guns would support and embrace this

When will the' Powers' that be accept that people will not smoke smoking until they are ready too. This stupid idea of plain packaging will not prevent smokers from buying anything that contains nicotine as they need it for their addiction, as we do.
If they were to promote Vaping they would get better results in their surveys of people who stop smoking cigarettes.
