The Forum - The Vaping Debate and Health: Evidence and Unknowns

2020

This webcast seminar from The Forum at the T.H. Chan School of Public Health explored the pros and cons of vaping from a public health and policy perspective. E-cigarette advocates argue vaping is a safer alternative to tobacco, while critics fear a new generation is becoming addicted to nicotine. Meanwhile, a recent outbreak of vaping-related illnesses and deaths has underscored how the growth of vaping has outpaced regulation and research. This Forum was presented jointly with Reuters.
