*Using a simple model of competition between traditional cigarettes and e-cigarettes for users, we predict the change in smoking prevalence due to the introduction of vaping in the U.S. Vaping products appear to decrease the prevalence of smoking among both adult and adolescent populations. Because the long-term health risks of vaping are currently unknown, the public health cost and/or benefit of e-cigarette is less clear. However, as suggested by our model, it is possible that the introduction of e-cigarettes will have positive effects for both adult and youth populations depending on the relative health risk of smoking and vaping. | |||
