In its response to the preliminary opinion, IEVA cited several areas of concern: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-offset-key=\"fvmpu-0-0\">The Committee has concluded that there is insufficient evidence that e-cigarettes are not a useful tool for smokers seeking alternatives, despite quoting two randomized control trials stating precisely the opposite. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-offset-key=\"fvmpu-0-0\">In its risk assessment, the Committee has not taken a risk-based approach at all, but rather a hazard-based approach. It states the potential risks of using e-cigarettes without even attempting to compare these with the risks from cigarette smoking, which are exponentially higher. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-offset-key=\"fvmpu-0-0\">The Committee has concluded that there is strong evidence that e-cigarettes act as a \u201cgateway\u201d to smoking. However, it has done so based almost exclusively on data from the United States, where an entirely different regulatory regime exists. The Committee also fails to acknowledge that smoking among young people has declined significantly: if vaping leads to smoking, then why are there not more smokers observed during the period where the e-cigarette market grew rapidly?&#8221;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>ARTICLE LINK:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tobaccoreporter.com\/2020\/11\/03\/vape-alliance-sheer-report-fundamentally-flawed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vape Alliance: SHEER Report \u2018Fundamentally Flawed\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"VAPING%20NEWS%3A%20EU%20%5BSHEER%20Report%20Flawed%5D\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;A scientific report on e-cigarettes prepared for the European is fundamentally flawed, according to the Independent European Vape Alliance (IEVA).
