450 cases and 5 deaths in one year..
Compare that to tobacco (480,000).

How many smokers are there compared to vapers? Raw numbers don't tell the whole story.Speaker to Animals wrote: Sat Sep 07, 2019 5:32 am 450 cases and 5 deaths in one year..

These are young people dying within a short time of taking up the habit.

Not sure. There are quite a lot of vapers in the millennial age range here in America.
edit..
Although, if you think about it, for 5 fatalities to imply vaping is more dangerous than smoking, there should only be about one to two hundred vapers, tops.

Those deaths are from homemade cannabis vaping. Has nothing to do with e cigarettes.

No, they are from both nicotine and THC vaping liquids.Hastur wrote: Sat Sep 07, 2019 6:37 am Those deaths are from homemade cannabis vaping. Has nothing to do with e cigarettes.
Vaping is more heavily regulated in the UK and so far no such lung diseases have been recorded.

Didn't big tobacco get in trouble in the 80s for putting chemicals in their cigs ?pineapplemike wrote: Sat Sep 07, 2019 6:24 am heating up metal and inhaling potentially dangerous chemicals cant be smart
Now we have folks going straight chemicals. Doesn't sound smart.
They sell it as a safe alternative though.

There were marketing campaigns to that effect, but physicians knew smoking was unhealthy going back to when it was first imported to Europe from the colonies.

Sugar is still marketed for its ''goodness''.
Probably best to ignore all marketing.
