From Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch

Hysteria over vaping is not a by-product of public health’s war on vaping; it’s the intended result.

Public health seeks to generate fear and panic to impede logical thinking, from the so-called “epidemic” of teen vaping and “vaping-related lung illness” to the claim that nicotine harms developing brains.

In this special edition of RegWatch, Martin Cullip, International Fellow at the Taxpayers Protection Alliance and prolific writer on harm reduction policy, provides an intelligent reaction to a litany of panics public health has pushed concerning nicotine vaping products.

“E-cigarettes (vapes) are currently the most popular aid used to quit smoking in England and are used by around 4.3 million adults in Great Britain, the majority of whom are ex-smokers. A recent Cochrane systematic review found that e-cigarettes are a more effective quitting aid for smokers than nicotine patches or gum.

A major independent review of the evidence on the health effects of vaping, commissioned by the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, concluded that “vaping poses only a small fraction of the health risks of smoking and that smokers should be encouraged to use vaping products (or medicinally licensed products) for stopping smoking”.

E-cigarette use among 11-17 year olds who have never smoked remains low, with only 1.7% of never smokers vaping at least monthly. While we are seeing an increase in vaping among children and young adults, the vast majority are young people who’ve already tried smoking. Vaping among those who haven’t tried smoking has to date largely been experimental with people just trying it once or twice.

It is vital that health professionals are provided with accurate, evidence-based information on vaping so that they can deliver advice and support to smokers, children and families.”

“Kenneth Warner, dean emeritus and the Avedis Donabedian Distinguished University Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan’s School of Public Health, says there is enough evidence to support e-cigarettes’ use as a first-line aid for smoking cessation in adults. “Far too many adults who want to quit smoking are unable to do so,” Warner said. “E-cigarettes constitute the first new tool to help them in decades. Yet relatively few smokers and indeed health care professionals appreciate their potential value.” In a study published in Nature Medicine, Warner and colleagues took a global view of vaping, examining countries that promote vaping as a smoking cessation and countries that don’t. While agencies in the United States and Canada acknowledge the potential benefit of e-cigarette use, they deem the evidence to recommend e-cigarettes for smoking cessation as insufficient, according to the authors. However, in the United Kingdom and New Zealand there is high-level support and promotion of e-cigarettes as a first-line smoking cessation treatment option. “We believe that governments, medical professional groups and individual health care professionals in countries such as the U.S., Canada and Australia should give greater consideration to the potential of e-cigarettes for increasing smoking cessation,” Warner said. “E-cigarettes are not the magic bullet that will end the devastation wrought by cigarette smoking, but they can contribute to that lofty public health goal.””
