Vaping is a MUCH safer choice. 🚭📊 Allergic reactions may occur, but they don't prove vaping causes them. Cases often overlook critical factors like allergies, previous substance use, or medical history. #HarmReduction #SaferNicotine #FCTCCOP10 bit.ly/3ia6635

It's clear that the risks linked to e-cigarettes are FAR lower than those tied to traditional smoking. NO disease exclusively caused by vaping has ever been identified. #HarmReduction #SaferNicotine #FCTCCOP10 bit.ly/3ia6635
