(145 posts)If I were next to you on a train you would never know I was using an e-cig, I dont have to exhale the vapor. At most you might smell a little tiny bit of a fruit smell. The vapor disapates even in the lungs after about 11 seconds.
Why would you want to condem those that have quit smoking by using the e-cig, and try to push them back to smoking? It just doesnt make any sense to me why people are condeming those that are trying something that works for many to get them away from smoking, where all the FDA NRTs have failed. and the 99% failure rate of cold turkey. NRTs have a 95% failure rate. So far in data that has been created from studies and surveys e-cigs have only a 15% failure rate. And its the only thing on the market that will brake the mental addiction that is seperate from the nicotine addiction.
Novelty stage? hum 2.5 + use ecigs in US and is growing.
7million + use ecigs in the EU and other countrys
so about 10 million in the world use e-cigs that used to be smokers.
In 10 years nobody has died from direct use of e-cigarettes. How many die from alcohol related use? How many have died from smoking related use?
I wonder if they thought the same thing about the car?
