I spoke to a number of researchers several years ago before vaping really became so mainstream.

To be honest a number had a rather surprising view: if it has nicotine in it then it must be bad.

I formed my own opinion back then: the researchers did not seem that inretested in the effects of vaping and preferred to instead just associate it with cigarettes.

This article talks about us not knowing the long term effects (which is true) but then goes on to regulating vaping. Why not advocate for more research instead?

I don’t think vaping is without side effects but it’s my personal view and I have no scientific basis for it. But we should be doing more research before we clamp down on it.
