I'm astonished that there are folks in this thread who believe vaping to be as harmful as smoking cigarettes. Are there any peer reviewed papers supporting this assertion? I've kept an eye on literature as it's been released and everything indicates orders of magnitude less cell death and disruption from nicotine and flavor carrying PG/VG vape juice than cigarette smoke. Linked a DOI supporting this understanding elsewhere, but wondering if folks have papers supporting the opposite?

The amount of misinformation in this thread is worrying. Seems like your American pharmaceutical lobbies, or whoever gains in destroying the vaping industry, have succeeded in spreading the idea that vaping is somehow more damaging than smoking. Now that the science showed pretty clearly it's at least way less dangerous than cigarettes in short-to-mid term, they switched the narrative to "for the kids".
