Do smoking bans apply to e-cigarettes?

272. I think the locality has to specify

In my county they're treated like cigarettes. They're not like them, but I understand how hysterical people tend to be and just roll with it. Personally, I've done my own research. My asthmatic sister says she'd know if there was any irritant in them. My vaping near her doesn't bother her at all. She thinks it's a great thing, in fact. My other personal test is that I stealth vape in the ladies' room at work sometimes. We have co-workers who can detect perfume from across the building and have a reaction to it. Not one has notice a thing in the ladies' room. For myself, after vaping for a few months I will never go back to cigarettes. It's been one of the best things that's ever happened to me.

There are actually lots of studies being done all the time and most of them find that the vapor is not signficantly harmful. The main reason that Njoy sued not to have the product classified as a cessation device is that it would have given the FDA the power to take it off the market for years while it was tested, not only for safety, but for efficacy. Neither manufacturers nor consumers of vaping products want that. Everyone expects some regulations to be forthcoming soon.

One recent study is linked here:

There are lots of others and just a little research will turn them up.
