How Come Sweden Is Almost Smoke Free?
Smoke Free Sweden have issued a new report on how they are close to the Smoke free goal of 5% or less smoking rate - an interesting read and they say...
"This follow-up report is a call to the WHO and global public health to study the harm reduction strategies so successfully employed by Sweden"

New Study - Smokers would appreciate Health Care Interventions to help them transition to vaping
Ecigclick have reported on the new study showing how smokers / vapers would react to different health care interventions to aid them to quit / stay away from smoking - https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/would-uk-smokers-welcome-nhs-vaping-support/
You can also view the study here https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17579139231185481

New Study - Smokers Switching To Vapes Could Save NHS More Than £500m A Year
A new study has been published from the Brunel University London.
Ecigclick have covered it here... https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/switching-to-vapes-could-save-nhs-more-than-500m-a-year/
The article from the Brunel website is here https://www.brunel.ac.uk/news-and-events/news/articles/NHS-would-save-more-than-500m-a-year-if-half-of-England's-adult-smokers-vaped-instead
The full study is online - but behind a paywall https://www.magonlinelibrary.com/doi/epub/10.12968/bjhc.2023.0046

ASH UK - E-cigarette Use In Great Britain 2023 Results
ASH UK have published the results of their e-cigarette use in Great Britain survey - read the full results here https://ash.org.uk/uploads/Use-of-e-cigarettes-among-adults-in-Great-Britain-2023.pdf
Also you can read their press release here https://ash.org.uk/media-centre/news/press-releases/four-in-ten-smokers-wrongly-believe-that-vaping-is-as-or-more-harmful-as-smoking
Sadly 4 in 10 smokers are scared of vaping.
Ecigclick have written an article summarising the main points here https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/4-in-10-smokers-wrongly-fear-vaping-ash-e-cigarette-use-in-gb-2023-survey-results/
Various responses have already been published.
The IBVTA have published a press release - https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/ibvta-statement-on-ash-yougov-e-cigarette-use-in-gb-2023-survey/
Various health professionals have made excellent responses - https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/expert-reaction-to-ash-e-cigarette-use-in-gb-2023-survey/
The NNA have also responded https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/nna-responds-to-the-ash-vaping-results/
To help counteract the negative perception of vaping, ASH UK have produced an great "Mythbusting" article on all the common myths - https://ash.org.uk/uploads/Addressing-common-myths-about-vaping-ASH-brief.pdf
I know ASH UK policies are not always popular with vapers but at least they see vaping for the benefit of accelerating the decrease in smoking rate. Unlike some of their counterparts – cough – ASH Scotland…ASH USA
They are generally sympathetic to vaping and see it as an important tool to reduce smoking in the UK and in a recent Health and Social Care committee - the Chief Exec of ASH UK - Deborah Arnott - was one of the few actually talking sense and sticking up for vaping in the horrific first panel. https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/health-social-care-youth-vaping/
If you want to see more responses by various organisations / experts - I have summarised them here in our Article - https://www.ecigclick.co.uk/updates-to-health-social-care-committee-on-youth-vaping/
