University College London’s Emma Beard, Jamie Brown, and Lion Shahab have pumped out yet another piece of research that supports switching from smoking to vaping.
Moreover, they find that there is no evidence that electronic cigarettes lead English youth into tobacco use.
The trio wanted to assess “how changes in the prevalence of e-cigarette use among young adults have been associated with changes in the uptake of smoking in England between 2007 and 2018.”
It’s an important issue as, “policymakers have cited a gateway from e-cigarette use to cigarette smoking as a key motivation for various regulations to heavily restrict e-cigarettes.”
