“E-cigarettes are a relatively new stop smoking tool, but if used correctly represent a big opportunity to reduce the harms caused by smoking, and to help smokers quit their addiction. They are thought to be at least 95% less harmful to health than tobacco, and evidence suggests that for many they are an effective means to give up smoking. …Nearly a third of smokers have never tried vaping.  There is a big opportunity to encourage as many smokers as possible to transition to vaping, and in doing so reduce their health risks.”

==[https://express.adobe.com/page/QuOmX7ZebqdCf/ Association of Directors of Public Health North East Position Statement on Nicotine Vaping]==
 
UK Association of Directors of Public Health North East:  “Tobacco remains the single biggest cause of preventable illness and death with approximately 5,000 people in the North East dying each year from smoking.  The evidence is clear that, for smokers, vaping is a far less risky option and, in the short and medium term, vaping poses a small fraction of the risks of smoking.  We must ensure that vaping is an affordable and accessible alternative for smokers who want to reduce their risk of dying.  There are concerns that only a small proportion of adults who smoke accurately believe that vaping was less harmful than smoking.  We therefore support the delivery of evidence based communications among stakeholders and the public to widen understanding and to ensure smokers understand that switching to vaping is a significantly less harmful option than continuing to smoke.”

*E-cigarettes may be beneficial for individuals who smoke and use them to quit smoking completely.
*E-cigarette aerosols contain considerably lower amounts of harmful and toxic chemicals compared to conventional cigarette aerosols. An extensive study from 2021 tested carbonyl compounds (including aldehydes such as acetaldehyde and formaldehyde, Section 12.4.3.2) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs, Section 12.4.3.6) levels in e-cigarette compared to conventional cigarette and heated tobacco products aerosols. Among the 19 carbonyl compounds tested, 17 were lowest in e-cigarette aerosols. Among the 22 PAHs that were detected, 21 were lowest in e-cigarette aerosols compared to conventional cigarette and heated tobacco products. When comparing average levels of all the compounds in each class, e-cigarettes had a 99% reduction per puff of carbonyl compounds compared to conventional cigarettes, and a 98% reduction per puff of PAHs, many of which are known causes of cancer.

*"Smoking rates are dropping, thanks to price increases associated with tobacco taxes, smoking bans, and other evidence-based practices outlined in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.Even if these practices are scaled up, however, millions of smokers will still suffer death, disease, and disability. Alternative tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, aren’t harmless, but they may be less harmful. We need to understand whether they could change the course of the smoking epidemic without addicting youth.”

*While abstinence from tobacco use is the ideal, the next-best result, for individuals who can’t or don’t want to quit nicotine, is movement down the continuum of risk: away from combusted tobacco to a less harmful product. One possible alternative: E-cigarettes.

Federal Centre for Health Education in Germany, the National Institute for Public Health and

the importance of e-cigarettes and heated tobacco as a safe alternative compared to burning
cigarettes.

[[File:FDA facts about e-cigs email.pdf|alt=The FDA regulates the manufacture, distribution, and marketing of tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, and e-cigarettes (sometimes called “vapes”). The FDA has the legal authority to regulate tobacco products containing nicotine from any source, including synthetic nicotine. Here are some facts to help dispel common myths about ecigarette use, which is commonly referred to as “vaping.” Fact: In general, different types of tobacco products pose  different levels of risk to people’s health. More Information: Tobacco products that are smoked – such as cigarettes – generally pose the greatest risk to your health. Cigarette smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, about 70 of which are linked to cancer. Tobacco products that are not smoked generally contain lower levels of harmful chemicals linked to cancer. Bottom Line: While e-cigarette aerosol generally contains lower levels of harmful chemicals than cigarette smoke, no tobacco products are safe. Fact: E-cigarettes contain nicotine, which is highly addictive and can disrupt adolescent brain development. More Information: The younger a person is when they start using tobacco products, the more likely they are to become addicted. Because their brains are still developing, young people have a higher risk of becoming addicted to the nicotine in tobacco products than adults. Bottom Line: Youth should not use any tobacco product, including e-cigarettes. Fact: The FDA does not “approve” tobacco products for sale in the U.S. More Information: To legally sell or distribute a new tobacco product in the U.S., manufacturers must receive authorization from the FDA. A marketing authorization does not indicate that the tobacco product is either safe or “approved.” It means that the manufacturer has complied  with the requirements under the law to bring its product to market. Bottom Line: There is no such thing as a safe tobacco product, so the FDA’s safe and effective standard for evaluating medical products does not apply to tobacco products. Fact: In general, transitioning completely from using cigarettes to an e-cigarette would reduce the risk of exposure to harmful chemicals. More Information: Switching completely to e-cigarettes can reduce health risks among adults who smoke. But continued use of both products (“dual use”) does not meaningfully reduce one’s risk. Bottom Line: For an adult who smokes to benefit from ecigarette use, they have to transition completely from cigarettes to e-cigarettes. |thumb|FDA facts about e-cigs email sent 19 sept 2023 particularly page 3 ]]
