@BradRodu @PostOpinions @DrLeanaWenMD For those inclined to misrepresents this chart and punt a moral panic about the 6.11 million vapers (34%) who have never smoked, please be calm.

Recent @theNCI survey shows: Smokers quit with vapes, but not if they don’t believe they work. Using vapes is the key to believing they work. Don’t trust the @AmerMedAssoc on this issue. #vaping #smoking #health
