Hopefully, the FDA will not be swayed by this nonsense.
In the Table, the authors report that of the 88 e-cigarette "users," only 8.0% reported that they were trying to quit at that time (that is, within the next 30 days). And only 39.8% of the e-cigarette users had any intention of quitting in the next six months. This means that we actually know for a fact that the majority of e-cigarette users in this study were not using these products as part of a quit attempt.
“I gave Cigavette e-cigarettes a try and was truly impressed. I love the fact they have a full line and offer different choices that fit my needs. I started using the Full Flavor and within a few weeks was already lowering my Nicotine strength and was able to switch to Lights. I got the Starter and ReFill Package first to see how I liked it and then got the Set so I had 2 batteries and the wall/usb charger. I haven’t felt the need for a cigarette once since making the switch. You can tell from the first puff Cigavette is quality and produces an amazing amount of vapor. We finally have an e-cig company that figured it out. I tell everyone I know about Cigavette.”(from Cigavette website)
The Rest of the Story
Suppose that there are 1000 e-cigarette users who enter the cancer center with a diagnosis of cancer. Of these, an amazing 900 were able to quit smoking. However, 100 were very resistant smokers and could not quit smoking, even with e-cigarettes. Note that it would be these 100 resistant smokers who would be enrolled in the study. The 900 ex-smokers who quit using e-cigarettes would not be eligible for the study, because they no longer smoke.
