a starting point for those who might be thinking of the switch

there are some more myth busters here

just as a starting point mind

whilst I remain positive on the overall benefits of vaping, one of the areas I still keep an open mind on is the area of study (lungs and risk of infection) ...the media did its usual “sex up the story” the study was a very small sample and NHS england addresses this within the below link as well as a link to the original study.

https://www.nhs.uk/news/heart-and-l...garettes-may-make-lungs-vulnerable-infection/

I say I keep an open mind as I had some pretty severe chest infections year before last one resulting in suspected pneumonia, however I haven’t had any such instances in over a year with the continuance of vaping and using similar flavours as before, so that could have been a result of other factors (ex smoker, general viral/bacterial strains going around at the time, low immune system due to other factors) ...regardless I still like keeping an open mind until I know more
