No longer even bothering with concealing that end game war on nicotine is total war. It’s now clear FCTC will not consider collateral damage in the hundreds of millions lives and trillions of dollars as anything other than enemy combatant losses. Nice! @dabelstein @INNCOorg

By equating smoke with vape and HTP aerosols (proposed in articles 9 and 10), WHO's approach, rooted in contentious science, is now facing backlash. Many delegations have challenged the WHO's anti-THR stance, citing its reliance on highly speculative science. The postponement of discussions on Articles 9 & 10 to COP11 underscores the contentious path WHO has chosen. #COP10 #WHO #THRDebate

Sadly much more often than not, my reaction to news from you know who….

Curious and interesting that there is simply no mention whatsoever of anything regarding the array of vastly safer nicotine products in the underlying WHO EB/152 document adopted by WHA76 in late may. Does the right hand not get info from the left perhaps? apps.who.int/gb/ebwha/pdf_f…

Still going strong, personal hero, deserves recognition! Happy World Vape Day and promote THR products lowering the risks from continued nicotine use to below relevant Public Health thresholds.

@ChaunceyGardner @TahirTturk In my first years, I had written in a forum "Do you know what is unfair? If I die now, they will not count my 40 years smoking and blame e-cigs."

Nu är det dags igen! Alla som valt bort cigaretterna till förmån för lågskadeprodukter, Gratulerar! Skicka gärna vidare och ställ frågan varför konsumenter inte är välkomna att delta i diskussionen alls?

Pediatricians: We Can't Bear the Burden of Teen Angst: Well good for you all for calling this out, loudly enough to be heard I hope. Who but you would/could be expected to sound the alarm that the problem is bigger than you are equipped to deal with, kudos medscape.com/viewarticle/98…

The ostensibly most transparent nation won’t lift a finger in protest against blatant censorship of NGOs by fellow EU member? Sweden furthermore uniquely only nation on earth with 100 year proof of concept re THR proving Spanish knee-jerk counterproductive bit.ly/3YVPGeG

@SwitchFinder @mikepesko Mike Pesko and colleagues, oftentimes the guests as well - very cool, impressive, interesting takes on the economics of the human condition through a nicotine lens

@imaracingmom 2/2 In my immediate family we are 4 ex daily smokers of 4 possible, all alive and ex-smokers since a decade or more. 3/4 or 75% of us are still daily THR nicotine users, only one found quitting an attractive option even when foregoing all nicotine. That’s lifesaving info IMHO! ❤️

@imaracingmom Harald Befrits, granddad, did a desperate run to make it till I was born, double sided inoperable LC made him call in a favour a month early, sad but I respect it immensely. Respect for both how and why as agency and dignity are key to how we deal with the human condition 1/2

1300 Americans die everyday from smoking. Globally someone dies every four seconds from smoking related causes. 11 years ago today my mom was one of them. I advocate for #TobaccoHarmReduction as a way to honor her.

Deadline to submit comment today Jan 16 23.55. Please take a minute or so to with a sentence to the Dutch that blanket banning nicotine pouches will earn them infamy. Amsterdam police girl snus video youtube flagged - nothing befrits.wordpress.com/2023/01/16/hol…

Now compare this with MedScape on edibles, then compare with nicotine. This has per person exposed, limited abuse liability, particularly multiple instances, it tastes sweet and candy like and manifests at 4-12 hours.

@atoscanof4 @cancerLGBT is frankly desk-murder wholesale. The desired results of deadly smoking petering out at the normal rate by making vastly safer alternatives impossibly unattractive will come in 2080 not 2040. I don't think LGBTQ volunteered dying early to save other groups' kids and grandkids?

@atoscanof4 @cancerLGBT 2/3 reduce incidence total of avoidable cancer by 30% by 2040 that democratic EU voted for. Making universal attractiveness to a subset in society of mildly stimulating nicotine to replace deadly smoking a negative issue to be borne entirely by consenting adults at risk 2/3

@LandlMichael @jkelovuori Sweden / Norway? New regs in Swe and clear on flavours staying in. Norway similar but I’d need more data. Pouches banned so ZYN there has 1%’ish tobacco content to make it allowable, but as snus.

Help needed! Are you aware of a country with a good regulatory framework for nicotine pouches? It seems either no regulation or bad regulation atm.
