To the relief of many in the anti-smoking scientific community, longtime anti-vaping extremist Stanton A Glantz, has suddenly retired from the University of California-San Francisco without warning and/or explanation. “I have finally retired from UCSF, ready to move to the next phase,” wrote Glantz in a message to colleagues. “I will also be continuing to work with my UCSF colleagues to complete work that is under way. From talking to colleagues who have already retired, I am confident that there will be more ways that I can keep contributing to fighting the tobacco industry and promoting public health.”
