I don't know where they pulled the 95% less dangerous than tobacco from, nicotine is a very nasty poison indeed and is probably in the top 5 of addictive substances.
They like to say its an aid to giving up tobacco, if so then where are the instructions on the box or packet to show us how to give it up? The tobacco industry are lying turds of the first rank, they will lie and lie and lie until jail is staring them in the face, only then will they tell the truth. Nicotine patches are the way to give up, not vaping.
This is what happened with the inquiries on tobacco causing cancer and is just the same now with vaping. Its just another way to sell tobacco related products, get them hooked on nicotine.
This is what is getting teenagers hooked on tobacco derivatives, vaping and the stupendous lies told by big tobacco. Catch them young and they are yours for life
Here's where I think they got that idea:
Traditional smokers inhale a witch’s brew of carcinogens and carbon monoxide. Smoking accounts for 30 percent of all cancer deaths, and 18 percent of all deaths. The founder of my magazine, William F. Buckley, a longtime cigar smoker who suffered from emphysema at the end of his life and had seen too many family members and colleagues killed by smoking-related illnesses, said in one of his last columns that he’d ban cigarettes if he could.
A credible estimate is that e-cigarettes, which involve inhaling a nicotine-infused vapor rather than smoke, are about 95 percent less harmful than cigarettes.
