Anyone who's considered the possibility that they might one day form an opinion about nicotine regulation knows what it is to grope for common ground in the dark. Disagreements can be fruitful if you respect your critics enough to know why they're wrong. open.substack.com/pub/joegitchel…

@RushmoreExt23 Not to be “super cynical” here but this also implies that at the end of their careers they are less concerned about impacts to academic funding. The real problem is the regulatory capture of NIH, CDC and FDA CTP by entrenched tobacco control interests.

“When respected former opponents acknowledge that harm reduction has merit, they can help open doors that activists and community voices have been pushing on for years.” Yes, oh yes, and hell yes indeed. open.substack.com/pub/ny2nz/p/wh…

In the past 8 years in speaking with public health researchers, experts and clinicians I’ve seen the shift towards support of harm reduction, from a previously ultra cautious and, at times, hostile approach to harm reduction. Their shift matters. ny2nz.substack.com/p/when-critics…

I’ve just submitted my consultation response on Vape-free public places. There is no evidence that vaping harms people in the vicinity and equating vaping with smoking makes people less likely to switch, undermining the government’s own policy on stopping smoking.

Harm reduction only works if people have both information and incentives. Telling smokers to move to lower-risk products while taxing those products at near-cigarette levels sends a mixed message. It suggests the government does not really believe the risk differences it claims to recognize. Policy is most effective when it aligns words and incentives.

I commend @MarcGunther’s insightful new piece on the problem with Democratic leaders’ misinformed opposition to tobacco harm reduction. My brief comment, from the perspective of someone who has worked with and for some of those leaders over the years, is here: @cliffdoug/note/c-229951451?r=1lelk&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@cliffdoug/not….
