18.12.25 \u2013 Bruxelles. La World Vapers Alliance (WVA) critica duramente il Commissario europeo per la Salute Oliv\u00e9r V\u00e1rhelyi per aver affermato in un'intervista Euractiv<\/a> che lo svapo, le bustine di nicotina e il tabacco riscaldato siano "al 100%" dannosi quanto le sigarette. L'affermazione contraddice decenni di prove e rischia di scoraggiare milioni di fumatori dal passare ad alternative meno dannose.<\/p>\n

Michael Landl, direttore della World Vapers Alliance, ha affermato che i commenti di V\u00e1rhelyi non sono solo sbagliati, ma anche pericolosi.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/em>Dicendo alla gente che lo svapo e le bustine di nicotina sono dannosi quanto le sigarette, il Commissario sta di fatto portando avanti una campagna di marketing a favore del fumo.<\/em><\/strong> I fumatori che avrebbero potuto cambiare tabacco continueranno a fumare, e pi\u00f9 persone moriranno. Questo \u00e8 l'opposto di ci\u00f2 che un Commissario per la Salute dovrebbe fare."\u201d
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Indipendente studi e recensioni<\/a> Studi commissionati da governi e enti sanitari pubblici in tutto il mondo dimostrano sistematicamente che questi prodotti sono molto meno dannosi del fumo. Dimostrano inoltre che questi prodotti aiutano le persone a smettere di fumare e che i fumatori che cambiano completamente stile di vita possono ridurre significativamente il rischio di malattie legate al fumo. L'affermazione di V\u00e1rhelyi cancella queste prove e inganna il pubblico sui rischi reali.<\/p>\n

Nonostante l'obiettivo ufficiale dell'UE di una generazione senza fumo con meno del 5% di fumatori entro il 2040, l'Unione \u00e8 ben lontana dal raggiungere questo obiettivo. Il recente Eurobarometro<\/a> Un'indagine dimostra che, al ritmo attuale, l'UE raggiunger\u00e0 questo obiettivo solo intorno al 2100. Esperti<\/a> E gruppi di consumatori<\/a> hanno avvertito che il rifiuto dell'UE di adottare alternative meno dannose \u00e8 una delle ragioni principali per cui i progressi sono cos\u00ec lenti.<\/p>\n

La World Vapers Alliance invita il Commissario V\u00e1rhelyi a correggere le sue affermazioni, a incontrare scienziati indipendenti e rappresentanti dei consumatori e a impegnarsi a una comunicazione basata sull'evidenza scientifica sulla nicotina. L'UE non pu\u00f2 combattere il fumo in modo credibile mentre il suo Commissario per la Salute diffonde disinformazione che induce i fumatori a consumare il prodotto pi\u00f9 pericoloso di tutti: le sigarette.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
