    Pointing out that this is NOT saying that vaping is more dangerous.

    It’s saying there’s shitty regulation in the US, allowing for cheap plastic vapes to have all sort toxic adulterants in them, and those are more harmful than smoking tobacco

    High Levels of Lead, Other Hazardous Metals Found in E-Cigarettes Popular with Teens

    Lead is more toxic than nicotine who would’ve guessed.

    This is clearly rather biased of a headline. Traditional smoking really is taking a hit, I imagine. (No pun intended)

      It’s a cheap battery, plastic, a single piece of wire twisted into a coil, water and flavouring.

      And then on top of that they cut corners by not testing it or ensuring to use safe materials.

      It’s amazing it costs as much as it does. They’re raking it in.
