      Thread started well, but quickly degenerated into nonsense. The fact is 544M people worldwide used #vaping over the past 15 years & not a single adverse #health effect has been verified as a result. The correct answer is that #ecigs are completely #harmless, as identified by RCPpic.twitter.com/GHndjDH5nk

      Even compared to air, #vaping has been proven #harmless. Why do you go through so much trouble to deny the overwhelming scientific consensus? http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0887233315001228 …

      Question: if I were to cite a highly experimental in vitro study of tracheal cells as evidence that vaping caused cancer, what would you say?

      I'd look at the methods, data, & analysis and evaluate the study on its merits. However, if you were looking for a long-term clinical trial in humans...👇 http://nature.com/articles/s41598-017-14043-2.epdf?author_access_token=l8t_CFXFba_tlW0txUFYUdRgN0jAjWel9jnR3ZoTv0NMAt6ii4ZbzbtpwtFdFYJVlcs1hjXJUiKOVlCiChaYgQ3RjmmwdRwporGc5koKIqktQg7FZIzM0ufasP_kftVHRZKBv_sHlOeDl5KjZoab0Q%3D%3D …

      And if I cited a study of 9 participants to prove my point? I've seen you laugh uproariously at such arguments before

      Again with the hypotheticals? Ok, here's one: 544M people have been #vaping worldwide over the past 15 years. If #vaping weren't completely #harmless, how many adverse #health events would you hypothetically expect to see? What would you conclude if the actual number is zero?

      Many/most people who vape also smoke or previously did. The number of adverse health events is extremely high. Lower than just smoking, perhaps, but it's an odd point to make

      Please provide links to death certificates citing #vaping as the COD

      Total gibberish. Death certificates differ from county to county, but I'm not aware of any that include distant proximal causes of death like vaping or, say, soft drink intake

      Replying to @GidMK

      That's probably because neither can cause death. What about smoking? Or Chantix for that matter? Are you familiar with the stats on those deaths? Deny reality all you like Gid, the fact remains #ecigs are the safest consumer products ever created, except perhaps #snus

          Indeed. I feel like I'm debating toxicology & epidemiology with a #chemtrails cult member. You do know contrails are #harmless water vapor right? So is #vapingpic.twitter.com/gK764O5bHG
