While many of these restrictions are reasonable, the final restriction mentioned - the prohibition on electronic cigarette companies claiming that these products are safer than tobacco cigarettes - is both inappropriate and devastating to the public health interest.

These flaws are also noted by Dr. Robert West, director of tobacco research at University College London, who that: "the study was not able to assess whether or not for cancer patients who smoke using an e-cigarette to try and quit is beneficial "because the sample could consist of e-cigarette users who had already failed in a quit attempt, so all those who would have succeeded already would be ruled out"."

But beyond the issue of medical or public health malpractice, I am most concerned about the simple principle of honesty. As medical and health professionals, our very first obligation is to be truthful with our patients and with the public. The information being provided by this respiratory therapist is untruthful. It is simply not the case that smoking may be less hazardous than vaping. There is no credible scientific debate about that issue in the year 2014.

They write: "What’s even more troubling is that these products serve as a gateway to traditional tobacco products. A recent JAMA Pediatrics study found that middle and high-school students who used e-cigarettes were more likely to smoke traditional cigarettes and less likely to quit smoking." In support of this statement, they cite the Glantz and Dutra cross-sectional study of e-cigarette use and smoking among youth.
