It's not limited to vaping either - I think the gist of the article could foresee some kind of anti-flu inhaler which could be either prescribed or generally available. If they let it.

Nope, it's just not a panacea. In one specific case in specific mice, there is strong evidence it may have been a factor in the preservation of life when threatened by a specific flu virus in a specific manner (inhalation). Whether this translates to certain groups of humans or all of us, with which viruses, and to what extent in which circumstances is a matter for further investigation. It's a starting point, not an end. I don't think that's balls!

It only said the mice lived, not that they repelled all colds - you're still alive aintcha?

Hiking the price up to create quality perception is a recognised and widely-practised strategy in marketing - with designer goods, for example, you're mainly paying for the name and logo. The use of higher quality materials and craftsmanship does not always account entirely for the mark-up. Even my DKNY wallet isn't perfect, and Chanel use plastic just like everyone else. Equally, supermarket brands do just the same job and the difference between them and branded goods is often a flick of a switch and packaging, yet brands still thrive. I can't imagine that the vaping world is any different, but there are always plenty of people with opinions and rave reviews on both sides of the divide. Just depends what's worth more to you personally.
