VAPING NEWS: FRAUDULENT ANTI-VAPING STUDIES & FUNDING
“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”

VAPING NEWS: AMERICAN STUDY FINDS E-CIGS ARE A GOOD SMOKING CESSATION AID
“There is good news for America’s smokers hoping to quit. A new study authored by researchers at Kansas University, California State and San Marcos University revealed when smokers switch to non-combustible alternatives, such as electronic cigarettes, they are more likely to quit and experience better health outcomes. This finding should be no surprise to those who are familiar with past studies on e-cigarettes showing their viability as a smoking cessation device. In contradiction to what this most recent vaping study and broader research shows, government policies continue to discourage the use of e-cigarettes. Instead of embracing electronic cigarettes as a healthier alternative to smoking, governments at both the state and federal level have imposed high taxes and regulatory burdens. If government officials want to improve public health, they should incentivize the use of e-cigarettes so that smokers can have more readily available access to vapor products that are shown to aid quitting and do not have the same long-term effects as traditional cigarettes.”

VAPING NEWS: GENETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY [Risk Takers More Likely To Smoke If E-cigs Banned]
“The findings imply that the genetic influences associated with people taking up smoking also influence people being e-cigarette users; these were also found to be associated with risk-taking behaviours more generally, such as externalising disorders in childhood. Previously, e-cigarette-use has been linked to an increased risk of smoking. However, if individuals are genetically more likely to both smoke and use e-cigarettes, policies which aim to prevent e-cigarette use by removing them from the market may actually encourage smoking where only cigarettes are available.”

VAPING NEWS: PACT ACT CLASSIFIES VAPE PRODUCTS AS CIGARETTES [aka Vape Mail Ban]
“Sellers who do no register or comply with new regulations, which are set to take effect 90 days from passage, would be subject to severe penalties, including up to three years in prison. The amended bill, known as the PACT Act (Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking), modifies the definition of “cigarettes” to include any vaping product, whether it contain nicotine or not. These changes prohibit Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) from being sent to consumers through the United States Postal Service, influencing other common carriers such as FedEx, which announced it would ban the delivery of vaping products as of March 1, 2021.”

VAPING NEWS: FLORIDA [Tobacco 21 With Some Vape Separation From Tobacco Products]
“It was business as usual Wednesday when a Senate panel voted to pass legislation to raise the smoking age from 18 to 21 for the second year in a row. This time around bill sponsor Sen. Travis Hutson has narrowly tailored the legislation more to Gov. Ron Desantis’ liking. It would appear the bill (SB 1080) is to many Senators liking as well. It unanimously passed the Committee on Health Policy Wednesday, and previously passed the Committee on Regulated Industries 9-0 earlier in March. The bill also splits up laws governing tobacco versus nicotine, because vaping products like e-cigarettes only contain nicotine and do not contain tobacco. Hutson said this change was to satisfy vaping companies. “We basically copied our tobacco statute and did a nicotine statute as well, so that they will be handled differently as it relates to taxation and regulation,” Hutson said.”
BILL TARLING — It looks to be a very welcomed achievement in getting even a little separation between tobacco products and E-liquid Vape Products [EVP] so that EVP’s don’t automatically get lumped in with every smoking and tobacco regulation or tax rate

VAPING NEWS: CONNECTICUT [Flavor Ban]
“The Connecticut General Assembly will consider a bill that would ban the sale of flavored tobacco and e-cigarette products in an attempt to reduce addiction, which disproportionately affects young adults and people of color. The ban would target vape products with fruity flavors that are popular with young people. The bill would also prevent the sale of menthol flavored products. The bill advanced from the state’s public health committee to the full Legislature on March 5. Senate Committee Chair Mary Daugherty Abrams said during the press conference that she thinks that there is a “strong” chance that the bill passes through the legislature. If the bill is enacted, the ban would go into effect in October.”

VAPING NEWS: FDA [Flavor Ban]
Dozens of Democratic lawmakers sent a letter to the head of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) urging the agency to take all flavored e-cigarettes off the market. The 43 House Democrats sent the letter to Acting FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock as the agency reviews premarket tobacco applications and flavored e-cigarette. The lawmakers want the FDA to ban all flavored e-cigarettes upon further review and nix the exemption the FDA has for methanol and disposable e-cigarettes. Along with a ban on flavored e-cigarettes, lawmakers want a ban on premarket tobacco applications and the marketing of e-cigarettes that target minors.”
