Kenkel say:
“While it makes sense to warn adolescents about the possible dangers of e-cigarettes, it is crucial to keep in mind that vaping is much less risky than smoking – perhaps one-twentieth the risk or even lower.
“In economic research with adult smokers in experimental markets, we find that when e-cigarettes carry strong health warning labels, more subjects choose combustible cigarettes. Allowing manufacturers to advertise e-cigarettes as less risky alternatives to combustible cigarettes could help smokers make better informed decisions about a promising way to reduce their health risks.”
