    I never said that vapes are “just as harmful as cigaretres”. Altough most studies that suggest “less harmful” vapes are corporately sponsored by vape companies and tobacco companies that are slowly adopting vapes into their model.

    Vapes as a tool to quit smoking are a nice tale, and probably work sometimes. But mostly vapes attracted teenagers and young adults and have started addicting a new generation of smokers/vapers after numbers have been falling these past few years.

      Vapes as a smoking cessation method has a 70% success rate. The next closest method is less than 3%.
