New Review Misleads on Youth Vaping and Public Health
Another alarmist article is once again pushing the long-debunked “youth vaping epidemic” narrative. Published in Cureus (part of Springer Nature) on August 5, the authors’ bias is evident from the title alone. The paper claims to be a narrative review examining the “rising” public health concerns related to youth vaping, including its prevalence, health risks, and regulatory responses. In reality, this so-called “review” is a smorgasbord of debunked falsehoods about tobacco harm reduction products.
