Reality hits EU Commission on #vaping. Some very interesting results form the recent #Eurobarometer:
Vaping is an important tool in the quest to quit smoking:
57% used electronic cigarettes to quit smoking & 37% because they believed that vaping is less harmful than smoking
Vaping is an important tool in the quest to quit smoking: 57% used electronic cigarettes to quit smoking & 37% because they believed that vaping is less harmful than smoking
31% were able to quit due to the use of e-cigarettes and another 27% reduced smoking, double the numbers from three years ago.
Vaping is not a gateway to smoking: 87% of current smokers started with cigarettes while only 2% tried vaping before they started smoking.
Most adult vapers are using flavours:Banning flavours would ruin the experience and send many back to smoking. What we need is choice and variety!
It is clear that the EU Commission needs to take their own research into account and #BackVapingBeatCancer. Proposals for higher taxes & flavour bans need to be dropped. Anything else would be a disgrace. https://worldvapersalliance.com/eurobarometer/
