Do smoking bans apply to e-cigarettes?

274. Dont think you read this link at all.

First you have to buy the PDF to see the whole study and im sure you didnt do that.
Second here is what they concluded :

"Conclusions Our findings are consistent with the idea that substituting tobacco cigarettes with e-cigarettes may substantially reduce exposure to selected tobacco-specific toxicants. E-cigarettes as a harm reduction strategy among smokers unwilling to quit, warrants further study. "


Results:" We found that the e-cigarette vapours contained some toxic substances. The levels of the toxicants were 9–450 times lower than in cigarette smoke and were, in many cases, comparable with trace amounts found in the reference product. "

In other words most that were found were trace amounts, below the threat level set by different government agencies.

I dont see here where anything was mentioned about formaldehyed at all. In fact in any of the studies done here, Germany, New Zealand to they ever mention formaldehyde.

The point is e-cigarettes are not ment for the non-smoker, they are ment for those trying to quit smoking and they are 98 to 99% safer than smoking cigarettes. And the reseach studys done by a few different labs show second hand vapor show no danger to by passers. vapor only last in the air 11 seconds. cigarette smoke last 30 min or more.

So you think its ok to condem people to continue smoking when they cant quit with any of the other things on the market?
