This just came up in the Lancet - some good, some bad

[deesigner]

Not entirely negative, main focus seems to be people not keeping liquid away from kids!!! Although there is some talk of toxins.

It's still not understood harm reduction and have just tried to spin the facts to a let the regulators decide and let your brain go back to sleep conclusion IMO. The last sentence is wrong "the effects of second-hand exposure to vapours unknown" there have been studies IIRC. The risk of producing formaldehyde a very high temps is well known

Its obvious they are prepared to open the gates for phama and big T cig-a-likes

It's a pants article in my humble opinion that does nothing for our cause

Do these people have any education?

Tank systems are larger devices than traditional e-cigarettes that can hold more nicotine and have variable voltages.

What does this mean? It makes a larger tank sound irresponsible. Surely the correct wording should be "can hold more nicotine liquid".

Most of this article is base on FDA findings and US base reports.
As seen as the FDA are committed to supporting Big Tobacco, and doing a hatchet job on vaping so they can hand control over to them.
I wouldn't consider anything being reported from the US at this time as being reliable facts. So the lancet is just parroting there supposed findings.

A lot of this stuff coming from the US make me laugh at times hijack. They're still pushing the bad when everyone else is on the net reading the good.

Kinda like the blind TRYING to lead those with perfect vision. Their house of cards will fall under the wind of truth, one day.

Well lets hope so Ripshod. I watched that senate meeting that they had not long ago, and the guy who was chairing it, was the same guy that legislated the regulations on tobacco.
He didn't seem very open at all to vaping. There was one senator who was saying ''Hold on a minute'', but I fear his voice will be lost amid all the negative voices.
I only follow this because you can bet if it goes bad in the US then we will be next.
