mhaze,

Here's institutions that don't "buy it":

There's still a few people in the US who prefer facts
to fiction.

And prefer the advice of medical professionals
to the self-proclaimed " astute observers."

But it's a choice, and of course people are free
to want to say - "I'm having what he's got."
And see what happens next - as it did with COVID
in the US.

"prefer the advice of medical professionals

So I show multiple studies out of Britain performed on behalf of the British government, (eg Public Health England (PHE)), as well as' Office for Health Improvement in the Department of Health and Social Care' and another from King's College, London run over a period of 8 years, and Foxy, adopting her standard that if you don't want it to be true, it isn't....well Foxy just ignores it.

Then she gives us a report that she hopes will support her fantasies. Well if she'd read the report she linked (and it a safe bet she didn't) she see that this report has nothing to say about banning vapes.

What the research shows is that vaping in adults is largely safe and orders of magnitude safer than smoking. The research also suggests - nothing more than that - that vaping by kids might be harmful at the margins.

So the correct response to work harder to ensure they stay out of the hands of kids while letting adults make their own choices. That's what most countries in the world are doing. But here, the government, in the thrall of ideologues, has decided to go down a different path.

They continually say they follow the science. They are kidding themselves.

Most countries in the world treat their adults like adults. The authoritarians in Australia have a different view and their flying-monkey supporters are just fine with that,

Hi Foxy,

A story; There is a Vape Shop in spitting distance of my place, very close to a railway underpass, about 50 meters away. On several occasions I've observed school children in uniform, about 14 or 15 maybe younger, make a mobile phone call from inside the pedestrian tunnel, then what do I see, an employee from the shop, walk down to the underpass where the children are, the bloke is carrying a couple of boxes of vapes, the kids exchange money for vapes, they go off in one direction, the grub returns to his shop!

The cops say; "Can't do anything unless we catch them in the act." I'm sure I must be mistaken, but could the Vape Shop owner resemble David Littleproud leader of the National Party, for Dill Brain Davo, its all about free enterprise making money.

Dear Mr Mhaze Trumpster,

That's right like with your folk hero the Dangerous Doctor Donald you believe it all fake news, and conspiracy theories!

Her's a corker from mhaze; "Nicotine isn't dangerous" Well I hate to burst your bubble old salt, but NICOTINE is a deadly poison. The fact YOU consume a minuscule amount in your 60 fags a day doesn't make it any less poisoness, it just doesn't kill you straight away. Usually lung cancer brought on by the thousands of other carcinogens including tars, in your fags do that. Vapes will do it for you as well.

"Nicotine poisoning occurs when nicotine begins to exhibit more dire toxic effects on an individual." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns that 50 to 60 milligrams of nicotine is a deadly dose for an adult who weighs about 150 pounds.

maze how many pounds do you weigh? 400?
