Bit disappointing wasn't it . . . still at least our habit didn't get hammered. Dual fueling is now a no no then, I think they make it up as they go along some of these so say medical 'experts '.  One fact I do know - I'd still be smoking 40/50 cigarettes a day, were it not for ecigs. I do so wish they'd get some ' real ' users on these broadcasts! |

This sums it up for me in the Telegraph article..
"I completely understand concerns about potential risks from this phenomenon but it is vital that public health experts separate opinion from evidence."

I've sent the BBC a comment, it may take them a little while to read it though  |

Its good to see this being picked up across all media. They even reported about it on Talksport radio.
Thing is all the WHO have managed to do is confuse people and left many with lasting doubts.
A lot of the public won't know who to believe.
Shame.

C'mon guys let's not be negative. We're very quick to jump on any bad press, let's be grateful for a bit of good news.

About a 20 minute conversation on radio 5 live Victoria Derbyshire programme, very largely positive and most unusually the pro vape side got the last comments, that really is the 1st time that the pro gets the last word which is what usually sticks in peoples minds. Encouraging and even the anti/doubtfull criticised the WHO.

What you need to remember is that the WHO press release was not just directed at the
UK, we just got the version in English. The rest of the world may well believe the ####ers!
