A lot of its misinformation is unverified and unproven and has been repeated in similar articles and mis informed social media over the past 10+ years. It is no wonder adult smokers are perplexed about the information provided by American health providers. If you want accurate and unbiased information on vaping and tobacco harm reduction from a longstanding medical organization (founded in 1519) please read further :&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://evapo.co.uk/blog/royal-college-of-physicians-continue-to-endorse-vaping"&gt;https://evapo.co.uk/blog/royal-college-of-physicians-continue-to-endorse-vaping#&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;I can also recommend reading&amp;nbsp;CASAA&amp;nbsp;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://casaa.org"&gt;https://casaa.org&lt;/a&gt; for even more information about adult vaping vs. smoking tobacco.

At the outset, they simply do not notice the symptoms, and when they go to see a doctor, they are often already swallowed up by it.
