Sadly, the Strategy does not consider the potential of vaping to help smokers switch and live healthier lives. Let\u2019s now take a quick look at the plan and learn where it is wrong about vaping.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the plan\u2019s Prevention Pilar, the document acknowledges that \u201ctobacco use is the main risk factor for cancer disease, accounting for one fifth of cancer cases and one third of cancer deaths, (\u2026) increasing the risk of at least 17 types of cancer.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite that, 17% of the Portuguese older than 15 years old are smokers, and more than 1,3 million Portuguese smoke daily. This is what motivates the Portuguese Health Ministry to include \u2018Tobacco Consumption Control\u2019 as one of the \u2018Strategic Intervention Areas\u2019 of the plan. But in order to drive people out of smoking you need to have a pragmatic strategy, given how difficult it is to give up cigarettes, and the Portuguese Government does not have one: it seems to consider vaping as harmful as smoking and fails to acknowledge that it can help many smokers quit cigarettes and avoid cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although no specific measures have yet been announced the main proposals and mistakes of the Strategy are the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite that, it is well established that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.publishing.service.gov.uk\/government\/uploads\/system\/uploads\/attachment_data\/file\/733022\/Ecigarettes_an_evidence_update_A_report_commissioned_by_Public_Health_England_FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaping<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a much safer (95%) alternative to smoking<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tobaccocontrol.bmj.com\/content\/27\/1\/10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the cancer risk of vaping is only 0,4% of that of smoking<\/a>. The<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0plan constantly puts vaping and smoking in the same category and announces the same measures for both. Vaping and smoking are very different and should be treated as such.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The plan announces a future regulation of ingredients and flavourings. This can be a complete disaster for public health if it entails further restricting the amount of nicotine vaping liquids can carry and banning vaping flavours. On the one hand, it is established that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/yorkshirecancerresearch.org.uk\/news\/the-truth-about-vaping\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nicotine is relatively harmless<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcplondon.ac.uk\/projects\/outputs\/nicotine-without-smoke-tobacco-harm-reduction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaping is a safer way to consume it<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. On the other hand, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34695685\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaping flavours are used by two thirds of vapers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and they are not only instrumental in helping smokers switch, but also ensure that they do not take up cigarettes again. In fact, flavoured devices are associated with a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7275248\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">230% increase in the odds of adult smoking cessation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Both nicotine and flavours are key for quitting cigarettes through vaping, and if restricted, evidence suggests <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0306460321003373\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">many vapers will be pushed to less safe alternatives in the black market or back to smoking<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Regulation of ingredients and flavours should guarantee the safety of products while allowing consumers to choose the liquids and flavours that best fit their needs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tightening regulation of conditions of sales is on the pipeline, and this may include banning online sales or limiting them to state tobacconists, measures that are being discussed in other states such as neighboring Spain. Again, this could force many vapers to smoke again. Vaping regulations should be smart and make sure the necessary age restrictions are put in place to prevent minors from taking up on vaping while keeping products widely available for adults.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smoke-free spaces are expected to be extended and to include vaping as a forbidden product in them. These were originally implemented to protect non-smokers from secondhand or passive smoking, but <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Daniel-Martin-15\/publication\/332980476_On_the_Passive_Exposure_to_Nicotine_from_Traditional_Cigarettes_Versus_e-Cigarettes\/links\/5cd5590192851c4eab91a781\/On-the-Passive-Exposure-to-Nicotine-from-Traditional-Cigarettes-Versus-e-Cigarettes.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">there is no evidence that secondhand vaping is harmful<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Therefore, vaping should be freely allowed in public spaces instead of restricted by biased smokefree zoning policies.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increasing the prices of e-cigarettes is proposed as a measure to reduce consumption. E-cigarette sales are very responsive to price changes, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/24935898\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaping use could effectively be reduced by an increase in prices or higher taxation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but such policy\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/add.16002\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">would drive many vapers to consume cigarettes again<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, damaging public health and increasing cancer incidence.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, the Portuguese Health Ministry plans to promote smoking cessation, but it fails to mention that vaping is the most successful smoking cessation method. Compared to other nicotine-replacement therapies, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qmul.ac.uk\/media\/news\/2019\/smd\/e-cigarettes-more-effective-than-nicotine-replacement-therapies-finds-major-uk-clinical-trial.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaping is almost twice as effective<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
