What's wrong with Public Health Administridiots and other Health Care Professionals when they are recommending banning E-Cigarettes, probably one of the greatest aids to cessation of tobacco smoking we have. When these feckless milksops wag their fingers in warning against the possible dangers of inhaling water vapour and propylene glycol as against the very definite multiple risks of tobacco inhalation, about which they have been rightfully screaming out against for years, I wonder if they have totally lost contact with reality. Surely this is a 'no contest'! H2OV2bacO. Come on folks, let's not be dopey!
Yes, I can hear some of them say, but some of the compounds used have some nicotine added and to that I reply that nicotine is one of the least toxic components found in tobacco.
Considering that there is evidence to suggest that smoking is on the increase, the arguments that e-cigs cold normalize the act of smoking or act as a gateway to smoking are particuarly weak, particularly in a society that is overwhelmingly approving of free accessibility of marijuana.
Concerns about the safety of the vapour itself is largely laid to rest by an article in BMC Health Journal which concluded that it poses virtually no risk to users.
As far as the Tobacco Industry is concerned, it is going to win either way as they already are in the e-cig business.
So to the Administridiots in the Department of Health, it is time to stop trying to organize a witch-hunt on E-Cigarettes and accept an aid to smoking cessation which may be the best we have to date.
Mainly events that occur in and around the medical world. Some you need to know about and some you don't. All to either inform or amuse you.
