To summarize - because of the ineffective tobacco control efforts of @WHO more than 100 million cigarette smokers around the world have taken matters into their own hands choosing life over death through vaping. We must act faster to accelerate this transition #vapingsaveslives

For the first time, @WHO has estimated global e-cigarette use – and the numbers are alarming: more than 100 million people worldwide are now #vaping. “Millions of people are stopping, or not taking up, tobacco use thanks to tobacco control efforts by countries around the world,”

“If you want better outcomes, get the smoking rate down as fast as possible. The demand for nicotine won’t disappear, but we can make it vastly safer — and we can do it without coercion. Let consumers make informed choices. That’s how we save lives.” https://t.co/vTjvPnfRrE

The first of 3 webinars starts today. I couldn’t call myself a true vaping activist if I didn’t promote this event. I am a public health doctor who wants to see an end to cigarettes and people need to know that there are safe alternatives. Join me today.

Dr. Tyndall @DrMtyndall understands harm reduction. He is baffled by the disinterest towards vaping from public health, policymakers et al. So are we Dr. Mark, so are we. Great interview here 👇 https://t.co/fNUwpgW2yE

In the 1990’s I lived in Kenya working with UManitoba. AIDS was wiping out a generation of Kenyans. Relief came with PEPFAR. It is tragic and morally reprehensible to see USAID funding withdrawn so callously. Canada must step up. ⁦@GovCanHealth

10 years today I quit 40 yrs of smoking. From giving up trying to quit after many failed attempts, feeling shame, worried about my health, to this! Hiking in Utah with newfound confidence. I'm a proud accidental quitter who wants others to have the same chance at a better life.
