2. During that same period is estimated that 8 M deaths occurred in the world attributed to smoking related diseases. Smoking is by a 4-fold more deadly that covid19.
3. During lockdown people smoked more because they spent more time at home and had more money to spend on cigarettes because they spent less on other things like gas, entertainment.
4. At the same time, some e-cigarette users turned back to combustible cigarettes because of increased e-cig taxes, bans on flavored vaping products and confusions about the health effects of vaping.
5. The @WHO, Scientist like @ProfGlantz, and medical associations sponsored by Bloomberg (Asthma, cancer and lung foundations around the world +others) are the main contributors to these campaigns of misinformation.
6. Bloomberg who sponsors handsomely the @WHO, and anti-vaping campaigns disagrees with vaping, because vaping is hindering pharmaceutical profits as a non-pharmaceutical tool more effective, similarly harmful, cheaper than pharma nicotine and pharma nicotine gum.
7. Bloomberg and his shares with Pfizer and other pharmaceutical companies, also don't like the disruptive concept of a product that can easily remove 30% of the cancers in the world mid-long term so rapidly. Because markets need estability and probably cancer is a good business.
8. 30% of the profits of several pharma companies come from cancer treatments, and after billions invested in R&D, they need to make sure there is a market for them
And yes, nicotine DOES not cause cancer, and the Pharmaceutical companies, WHO and Bloomberg know this well.
