The saddest part of the story is that while Councilman Constantinides is so concerned about youth "addiction" that he is willing to ban electronic cigarettes, he expressed no similar desire to ban the real ones. That's not public health leadership. It's political cowardice, and hypocrisy.

Thirdhand smoke is as dangerous as active smoking, according to anti-smoking researchers at the University of California, Riverside.

In other words, this is a special exemption put in place for what are clearly political, rather than public health purposes.

While the study must be viewed as providing only preliminary evidence and further confirmation is necessary, this is important research because it suggests that contrary to the assertions of many anti-smoking advocates, switching from tobacco cigarettes to electronic cigarettes decreases rather than increases the level of addiction to nicotine. Smokers who make the switch are less addicted and feel better prepared and better able to quit completely.

Thus, it appears that cigarette filters did produce a small but measurable decline in cancer risks associated with smoking, while further design changes that lowered tar levels did not. In other words, there is evidence that filtered cigarettes produce lower cancer risks than non-filtered cigarettes. However, within the filtered cigarette category, there is no evidence that low-tar cigarettes confer any reduced cancer risk.
