Vaping In The News – February 1st, 2020

Vaping In The News covers nicotine, smoking, vaping, snus, heat not burn, e-cigarettes, harm reduction, tobacco control, public health, government, regulations, policies & more worldwide.

The largest threat to Public Health is an informed consumer.


Youth who use nicotine have rights. Stop punishing them. ~ There’s a right way and a wrong way to “Ditch JUUL” ~ Vape Ban – More Losers Than Winners ~ Lungs ‘magically’ heal damage from smoking ~ The Surgeon General’s Bogus Report on Smoking Cessation ~ World Health Organisation fails ~ Peak Australian GP body supports vaping ~ Nicotine Expert: Vaping is Unlikely to Cause Seizures ~ Vaping Causes Everything ~ The USSG Isn’t Helping ~ Policy Tip Sheet: Tobacco Harm Reduction 101: State Profiles


Youth who use nicotine have rights. Stop punishing them.

I cannot break my VITN tradition, I’ve seen Michael McGrady, and so shall you.

I will preface this article with my now age-old (pun intended) and thoughtful question: At what age is a smoker considered a “smoker”, and display one of my favoritest tweets ever:

You can choose to disagree if you like.

Youth who use nicotine have rights. Stop punishing them.


There’s a right way and a wrong way to “Ditch JUUL”

Speaking of teens…. this is from the MN Smoke Free Alliance. It is not only an articulate and precise way to educate children the adults in the education, “control”, parenting, and industry spaces, it is one of the best “wish I’d have written this” documents I’ve seen.

There’s a right way and a wrong way to “Ditch JUUL”


Vape Ban – More Losers Than Winners

Speaking of teens…. they are included in this piece. If you’re going to talk about, and the genuine goal is harm reduction – directly or indirectly, you will include teens in the conversation.

Vape Ban – More Losers Than Winners


Lungs ‘magically’ heal damage from smoking

Because Robert Innes pointed this article out to me, I’m quoting Mr. Innes here, he has a better foreword to the article than I:

“So much for the argument that, “we should only breathe clean, fresh air” and that our lungs are delicate. It would seem that our lungs are smarter at looking after themselves than the World Health Organisation FCTC and the doomsayers who claim DNA damage from vaping.”

The Surgeon General’s Bogus Report on Smoking Cessation

Recall my friend, Jerry wants smokers to quit – and admittedly doesn’t understand why… he claimed “I didn’t even know until this report came out that you can add as much as 10 years — a decade — to your life expectancy by quitting smoking…” in his speech last week.

Speaking of fraud, Dr. Rodu takes Jerry’s “report” to task.

The largest threat to Public Health is an informed consumer.

Changes in E-Cigarette Use Behaviors and Dependence in Long-term E-Cigarette Users

“Findings suggest that the risk of relapse to cigarette smoking is low, and e-cigarette-related dependence remains stable in long-term e-cigarette users.”

Changes in E-Cigarette Use Behaviors and Dependence in Long-term E-Cigarette Users


A Randomized Trial of E-Cigarettes versus Nicotine-Replacement Therapy

The e-cigarette group reported greater declines in the incidence of cough and phlegm production from baseline to 52 weeks than did the nicotine-replacement group NOTE: Funded by the National Institute for Health Research and Cancer Research UK.

A Randomized Trial of E-Cigarettes versus Nicotine-Replacement Therapy


The CDC and Vaping: A Perfect Storm

“When is it appropriate for the government to misinform drug users? In light of the rash of severe lung injuries caused by almost exclusively illicit vape products, anti-vaping sentiments are building upon a perfect storm.”

US lawmaker introduces bill cutting nicotine in e-cigarettes amid teen vaping epidemic

Don’t think for one second lowering nicotine in vaping products does not have a direct mental bias illness with “lower nicotine” in cigarettes.

US lawmaker introduces bill cutting nicotine in e-cigarettes amid teen vaping epidemic

RELATED:

Careful what we – wish for. Remember, limiting is limiting adult consumer choice, whether it be cigarettes or e-liquid. Another link: lower nicotine – higher consumption.

I’ll expand: Because the new “cutting nicotine” bill above is being introduced, my Scooby-Doo, or Spidey senses tells me this New hashtag alert: #NicSick, is proof the “lower nicotinemovement propaganda is now in full force.

I ponder: How many cigarettes I’ll have to smoke to overdose.

Will misinformation kill people?

I ponder: Can you overdose?

Truth.


Promoting the rule of law through improved agency guidance documents

While this looks good on paper, I’m more confused now – and hope you are too.

Marewa Glover Gets an Apology

“They want to silence me.” ~ Dr. Glover.

This woman is important to YOU. As consumers, we are very fortunate in the internet age to have the opportunity to engage with professionals.

While *most* professionals feel the *gasp* the public, is beneath them, we are, as consumers, very lucky to have some who will engage.

They face much heavier scrutiny from their peers (rightly so), BUT this shows, among other things, the risks those professionals are taking, and the results of telling the truth about harm reduction.

Thank you for standing UP, Dr. Marewa Glover.

VapesGiving Event Aims to Raise Huge Funding Goals to help Advocacy~ Letters of Intent ~ Feds Owe the Public ‘Corrective Statements’ on Vaping ~ Long-term vaping causes no negative health results [new study] ~ Moving beyond vaping as a cessation-only practice ~ Simon Chapman gets it with both barrels in the Australian Senate. ~ The ‘Father of Stress’ Was a Tobacco Industry Shill ~ Smoking Cessation and Nicotine De-addiction Products Market~ Two from me

This is Vaping In The News for the week ending December 9th, 2017




VapesGiving Event Aims to Raise Huge Funding Goals to help Advocacy

Instead of focusing on what “can’t” be done, consider what CAN be done. Considering what is at stake, there is NO reason #VapesGiving can’t raise millions with this movement. This is beyond overdue.

Companies, including manufacturers, are joining with multiple advocacy groups to raise what should be nothing short of millions to attain results at any and all levels.

If you are IN business and not doing “anything”, I implore you to assess this and make some noise by making a difference. If you are already, I thank you.

VapesGiving Event Aims to Raise Huge Funding Goals to help Advocacy


Smoke-Free World – Letters of Intent

Focus, people.

Letters of Intent for Early Scoping Work


Feds Owe the Public ‘Corrective Statements’ on Vaping

The verdict is in if you’re in the United States, you’re seeing tobacco companies court-ordered advertising on television for the 1st time since the 70’s. Sally Satel & Guy Bentley explain why the Feds owe the public the same courtesy.

While they mention the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Surgeon General, I can come up with a list of defendants in other parts of this blog upon request.

Feds Owe the Public ‘Corrective Statements’ on Vaping


Long-term vaping causes no negative health results [new study]

Last week, I inadvertantly skipped this article by Jim McDonald.

“They found that the vapers had no negative health outcomes, and in fact showed results that were virtually indistinguishable from those of the non-vapers.”

Indistinguishable. This study extinguishes concerns, certainly, as to a smoker switching or dual using, and the very few and hard to find, who may take up vaping as opposed to smoking.

How You Vape. Are you a lung or mouth inhaler?

qs

While we assume that most cigarette smokers inhale, is this true of vapers?

Please let us know how YOU vape:

87 people, from 11 countries ! 🙂

This is quietly dedicated to one person. I love intriguing questions. I’m all about learning.
This one, done “undercover” & without any fanfare, didn’t get a lot of responses, but I didn’t “push” it. I didn’t tweet it like crazy. Just a few times and let it go. It was such a great question I decided to use a different style of survey to see if it would find it’s own way to the vaping world.
That experiment failed enormously as far as “how far will it go” which was fine. It seemed there was no real interest once I “put it out” a few times, an answer here, an answer there, so I’ve retired this on its own, but absolutely is intriguing enough to be added to my next survey.

Before we go any further, the lung effects with Bernd Mayer are here and with Dr Farsalinos here.

Also on the survey, “anecdotal”: I can breathe again


The question posed:

While we assume that most cigarette smokers inhale, is this true of vapers? Please let us know how YOU vape:

— I draw vapor into my mouth, and then into my lungs, and then exhale: 54.02%
— I do both:  20.69%
 
— I draw vapor directly into my lungs and then exhale: 17.24%
— I draw vapor into my mouth, and then exhale without inhaling: 8.05%

lunginhale

I’m in the “I draw vapor into my mouth, and then into my lungs, and then exhale” crowd, thanks for asking.

🙂


If you haven’t seen The Vaping Truth Survey Final Analysis, Here it is


If you haven’t seen @vapedupgaming ‘s AWESOME survey results, go SEE them: It was not mine, it was his, here are his results: Nicotine Flavor Survey, Here it is.

I just released this survey. It’s on the blog here:

Health Care Professionals & E-Cigarettes Survey

Or on it’s own without the blog here: Health Care Professionals & E-Cigarettes Survey

Please DON’T take it unless you’re in one of these fields:

Any Medical Professional worldwide is encouraged to take this survey about E-cigarettes. Doctors, Nurses, Researchers, Surgeons, Pharmacists, Specialists, Technicians, Dentists, Assistants,Tobacco Control & Smoking Cessation Experts are encouraged.

I’m not looking for just the people who are in favor, I’m looking for the one’s who are not. Everyone and anyone in those fields. I’ve tweeted directly TO Simon Chapman & Stanton Glantz. They can choose to take it, share it or ignore it just like everyone else. I’m not looking to get “one side”. You’d think I would since I vape…. well, no. I want the truth, just like research. ecigarette-research.org Nothing more, nothing less.


There IS another survey, NOT mine, many have encouraged it including Doctor Konstantinos Farsalinos. (He’s the face of ecigarette-research.org) I took it, the maker has been questioned I believe a few times, and was encouraged by them as well.

Your Perceptions and Experiences of Using Electronic Cigarettes

Finally, not a post goes live without M.O.V.E. If you don’t know about M.O.V.E. You need to!
