        (3/5) Youth e-cigarette use has skyrocketed across the country. That’s why I issued a Surgeon General’s advisory on youth e-cigarette use just over one year ago, calling it an epidemic. #SundayThoughtshttps://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2018/12/18/surgeon-general-releases-advisory-e-cigarette-epidemic-among-youth.html …

        (4/5) E-cigarette use poses a significant – and avoidable – health risk to our young people. In addition to ⬆️ the possibility of addiction & long-term harm to brain development and respiratory health, it may also ➡️ to the use of regular cigarettes that are even more dangerous.

        #vaping has been proven to be at least 95% less harmful by the Royal College of Physicians and is embraced as a public health tool in the UK. Why is it that our public health officials pretend there’s no scientific proof? #vapingsaveslives #WeVapeWeVote #NoWayPMTA

        2/2 I quit cigarettes in Jan'18 when I went into the hospital. I started vaping banana, strawberry & pineapple in Feb '18. Too late. I lost my right leg above the knee and still cannot walk. Limb is too short and taking extra time. I had a heart attack too. #WeVapeWeVote

        An incredibly naive and blatantly wrong view of the paradigm. You are yet another source of great shame for our nation. Institutionalized violence wins the day again. How you can sleep at night is beyond me. The thought of the number of deaths this will cause is just sickening...

        So it’s not alarming to you, our “nations doctor” that low nicotine cancer sticks were given the stamp of approval by the FDA to be sold because they passed PMTA? All that is doing is causing smokers to smoke more and get more of the tar and >7K chemicals 🤦🏾‍♂️.
