International researchers: “WHO risks lives by discouraging smoke-free alternatives”

Leading scientists criticize the WHO for discouraging smoke-free alternatives like e-cigarettes, snus, and nicotine pouches that can reduce nicotine risks. The organization views harm reduction as a tobacco industry scheme, sparking debate among experts who argue for a more science-based approach.

Critics note the success of these alternatives in helping smokers quit and reducing harm. The debate highlights the need for evidence-based regulation and a shift towards inclusive discussions to promote a smoke-free society globally.
