The illicit vape market in Australia is a direct result of the government's failure to legalize and regulate the products. It's time to accept that prohibition doesn't work and focus on policies that promote harm reduction and public health." #vaping #blackmarket #harmreduction
According to a new CDC survey, cigarette smoking rates in the U.S. continue to decline, while vaping rates remain stable. While some public health policies may be impactful, balanced vaping legislation will ensure smoking rates continue to decline. #smoking #vaping #publichealth
It's great to see smoking rates continue to drop in the U.S. Thanks to the availability of flavored vaping products, more smokers are able to quit and improve their health. Let's keep up the momentum!" #smokingcessation #vaping #publichealth
E-cigarettes have helped millions of people quit smoking. Restricting e-liquid flavors may hinder adult smokers' access to a safer alternative, and may lead to unintended consequences for public health. #vaping #flavourbans #publichealth

In its tweet thread about authorizing this smokeless brand as being reduced-risk, @FDATobacco makes several qualifying statements, which range from neutral to negative. Not one highlights the potential benefits of using the product, which is the actual point of the authorization.
Today, FDA issued a modified risk granted order to U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company for Copenhagen Classic Snuff, authorizing the company to market the product with specific reduced risk information.
This does not mean the product is safe or “FDA approved.” fda.gov/news-events/press-an…
