"Congratulations to all the tens of thousands of vapers out there who have quit smoking using electronic cigarettes. You have helped to improve your health and perhaps save your life. You have taken the most important step in improving your health. And you have done a tremendous favor for your family, friends, and loved ones."

The study found that: "Neither a brief session of active e-cigarette smoking (indicative: 3% reduction in FEV1/FVC) nor a 1 h passive e-cigarette smoking (indicative: 2.3% reduction in FEV1/FVC) significantly affected the lung function (p > 0.001). In contrast, active (indicative: 7.2% reduction in FEV1/FVC; p < 0.001) but not passive (indicative: 3.4% reduction in FEV1/FVC; p = 0.005) tobacco cigarette smoking undermined lung function."

Why is it negligent? Because it deviates from a well-accepted standard of care in medical and respiratory therapy practice, which is telling the truth. By disseminating false information - that smoking may be no more hazardous than vaping - to patients, this could lead to medical harm by convincing smokers not to quit via electronic cigarettes, but based on false information.

This piece by the American Lung Association is completely disingenuous. First of all, the Lung Association opposed an amendment that would have eliminating the menthol exemption in the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. Second of all, the Lung Association is not also calling for a ban on flavors in cigarettes that attract kids (i.e., menthol).
