“The European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS), a think tank, has produced a quick overview covering the initial reactions to the European Commission’s Beating Cancer plan. Initial feedback from nicotine consumer organisations was far from positive as the plan looked to tax vape products like cigarettes, to extend bans on vaping in public areas, and to ban flavours. Initially, The European Tobacco Harm Reduction Advocates (ETHRA) called the plan “perverse”, the World Vapers’ Alliance (WVA) said “the European Commission is allowing ideology to get in the way of science”, and The Independent European Vape Alliance (IEVA) said it needed “to consider all means available to reduce the burden of cancer related risk”. The Consumer Choice Centre, “a global consumer advocacy group, declares itself to be ‘deeply concerned’ by the Commission’s decision to equate conventional smoking with vaping and introduce restrictions that ‘don’t stand up to scrutiny and disregard consumer choice’. The statement notes that, ‘despite consistent calls from activist groups, including the CCC, and scientific evidence at hand, the Commission has chosen to pursue the path of paternalism as opposed to innovation and freedom’.””

“A California judge on Monday thwarted R.J. Reynolds’ challenge to a local law banning the sale of flavored tobacco in San Diego, finding federal regulations don’t bar the policy that was enacted out of concerns about youth smoking. U.S. District Judge Janis L. Sammartino said the San Diego County law isn’t preempted by the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, which authorizes the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to regulate tobacco products. While the federal law preempts state and local laws on tobacco standards, it does not block states or local governments from passing laws.”

Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:

In a world filled with grand conspiracy theories, it can be difficult to nail down a proper villain. After all, there’s no shortage of bad actors. But when it comes to the war on vaping there’s really only one, the billionaire Michael Bloomberg.

In this special series of RegWatch, we explore how Bloomberg uses his power and money to backstop a tangled web of philanthropic organizations who cajole, strong-arm or buy-off governments of low and middle-income countries so that they would implement harsh restrictions, taxes, and even bans on low-risk nicotine products, such as vaping.

Is Bloomberg doing more harm than good?

“Following the government banning the carriage of vape products by the US Postal Service (USPS), a number of courier companies announced they would be joining the ban on shipping devices and e-liquids too. A number of British vapers announced they were experiencing problems shipping products in and out of the UK with a well-known company. A number of vapers have been complaining over the last weekend of packages being opened, returned, or refused to be accepted for shipping by DHL. DHL says: “Please note that the prohibited items listed below apply to parcels being sent from and within the United Kingdom. For international carriage there may be additional prohibited items specified by the country of destination.” We sought clarification from DHL and asked them if vape products are now banned for shipments within the UK and what the justification was for this. DHL refused to provide an official statement, but someone who wished to remain non-attributable confirmed that the ban applies to all UK consumers trying to send vape related products on an ad-hoc basis. At this moment in time, it appears business account holders will remain unaffected.”

“To protect the public health and welfare of its residents, the Albany County Legislature has proposed prohibiting smoking and vaping in indoor common areas of apartments and other multi-unit housing. As the director of respiratory services for St. Peter’s Health Partners, I see first-hand, every day, the health impact smoking and vaping has on individuals’ health. Secondhand smoke is a common trigger for asthma, irritating airways and making it difficult or even impossible to breathe.”

BILL TARLING — The letter/article is by Brandi Ewing, Director, Respiratory Services, St. Peter’s Health Partners — whose expertise is extremely questionable considering their absolute lack of understanding that e-liquid vape products do not produce smoke.

“Altria Group Inc. on Friday urged a California federal judge to cut racketeering claims from multidistrict litigation alleging the tobacco giant fueled the youth epidemic by pushing e-cigarette maker Juul Labs Inc., of which Altria holds a large stake, to market tobacco products to teens. U.S. District Judge William H. Orrick issued a tentative ruling prior to Friday’s hearing stating that he was inclined to deny all of Altria’s motions to dismiss, except for state claims where there are no class representatives: Delaware, District of Columbia, Idaho and North Dakota.”

“Lies and half-truths are corrupting the reputation of tobacco harm reduction products. In South Africa, zealots are claiming vaping doesn’t help smokers quit – a clear distortion of the truth. Stopping Tobacco Organizations and Products (STOP) is a Bloomberg funded organisation has published a document full of smears and falsehoods. Is there anything that can be done to improve vaping’s reputation? “The evidence shows that vaping helps people quit smoking. This has been shown in a series of randomised controlled trials, the gold standard of scientific evidence. “Why, then, does a growing majority of EU citizens believe the opposite? Partly it is because the Americans’ moral panic about e-cigarettes has drifted across the Atlantic. Junk science from California regularly makes its way into European newspapers. Chemical experiments on mice, zebrafish and other small animals have been inappropriately extrapolated to humans to produce scary headlines and undermine the public’s confidence in e-cigarettes.” writes Christopher Snowdon in an article on New Europe”
