Global network of national consumer organisations advocating for the rights of people who wish to stop smoking, access to significantly safer nicotine products.
Must-read - bear in mind: 1. No evidence anywhere supports vaping prohibitions on public health (or other) grounds, but there is plenty against. 2. US evidence on flavour bans suggests they increase smoking. 3. @WHO and @BloombergDotOrg support both; doing more harm than good.
Where in the world are vapes prohibited? Check out our up-to-date list of the countries that prohibit sales or possession of vapes, and also our rundown of U.S. states with flavor bans or online sales restrictions. ow.ly/4Wgk50l8Q0B

He must have missed Brian King's statement in 2022 that there is NO vaping epidemic. And youth vaping rates have fallen significantly since. He is so misinformed & misguided it is scary! He sees no issue destroying 1,000s of vaping businesses & intends to do so. @realDonaldTrump
It is irresponsible for @FDACommissioner to claim "we have a child vaping epidemic." What we DO have is a 70% drop in teen use to a 10-year low. @DrMakaryFDA is, demonstrably, misinforming the public by claiming "epidemic." cdc.gov/media/releases…
More performative “policy” designed to degrade the most effective safer alternative to smoking. It’s embarrassing watching this government floating yet more idiotic illiberal ideas to obstruct people from quitting smoking. @KiranSidhu41
"Should the new law pass, vaping will be very visibly placed on a par with smoking," reports @KiranSidhu41. "It also seems inevitable that the burden of fines and escalated fines would fall disproportionately on lower-income people." filtermag.org/uk-vaping-bus-…
Another Day Another Vape Study Implies a Causation Where There is None Recent studies highlight how selective reporting and omitted context can distort evidence, fuelling misinformation that undermines life saving harm reduction strategies. Diane Caruana vapingpost.com/2025/07/28/ano…
📢 The upcoming TPD revision must be driven by evidence, not fear. Europe's access to safer alternatives is at stake. We call for proportionate, science-based regulation—not blanket bans. #TPD3 #harmreduction #vaping taxation-customs.ec.europa.eu/news/european-…
Champagne corks are popping at the headquarters of Australian industry-hating tobacco controllers AND illicit market entrepreneurs. I'm guessing many cigarette consumers aren't too unhappy about lower prices either. The guys in charge of the budget must be having nightmares.
Australia: Legal cigarette market declined by 50% in Q2 2025. PMI shipment is down by 83% 50% of the market is illegal now. BAT is the distant market leader in Australia. Imperial is #2 (a top-5 market). Surge of illicit will also have its toll on BAT and Imperial results
😂 "...overnight they rebranded to CANDY, sold NO candy, took down the smoke and propped up the most cartoonish lollipop and continued selling vapes like nothing changed." "It's f***ing hilarious, massive respect for the sheer audacity of it." skynews.com.au/lifestyle/tren….
CAPHRA welcomes continued scrutiny of all nicotine delivery systems. However, it is essential that reporting is balanced, evidence-based, and accurately contextualized. bit.ly/3U0YJKv
@RicardoMonrealA Respiraste sustancias tóxicas mientras hablabas. ¿Porque no caíste muerto? Porque respiraste dosis tan pequeñas que tus defensas las pueden contener. Inhalas más arsénico, plomo, formaldehydo y monóxido de carbon respirando en CDMX que usando un vaporizador.
Bien el razonamiento malo sobre los vapeadores que los investiga incluso @CochraneLibrary en su revisión 9 , enero 2025 “certeza alta para el abandono tabaquico por encima de otras terapias de reemplazo de nicotina “ doi.org/10.1002/146518…
2/2 Strangely, no one gives a rat's ass how many millions of adults will relapse to smoking as a result of these "Registry Bills." ...Relapse when the vapes they're using to avoid deadly cigarettes are prohibited. No one cares how much these bills will slow smoking cessation.
All over America, state lawmakers are passing such copy-and-paste "Registry Bills." Two strange bedfellows are lobbying hard for those bills: - Big Tobacco (to protect their deadly cigarette sales) - @TobaccoFreeKids (supposedly to protect teens). Strangely, no one... 1/2 👇

"The 2025 Canadian Conference on Tobacco and Nicotine (CCTN25), is being pitched as a space for “dialogue” and “collaboration.” But this is no public health conference." @papaioannoy has some words for the @CPHA_ACSP rights4vapers.com/open-letter-to…
