Reaction to clickbait from the HSE.

The text criticizes the HSE for falsely claiming vaping causes cancer and highlights discrepancies in the Tobacco Free Ireland Program, which fails to consider vaping as a smoking alternative. In contrast, New Zealand includes vaping in its smoke-free goals and implements safer vaping regulations. The Irish vaping proposals restrict advertisement and flavors, contrasting with New Zealand's approach. The text expresses frustration with Ireland's outdated policies and emphasizes the need to reassess strategies to reduce smoking rates effectively. It mentions concerns about the Minister for Health's legacy and suggests the tobacco industry may benefit from these ineffective policies.


18.00% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 717,042 current smokers in Ireland 21.00% of men are current smokers but only 15.00% of women.
