The European Commission: A source of misinformation
EU Commissioner Hoekstra wrongly equates smoking with vaping, risking public health. His push for heavy vape taxation ignores evidence that flavors aid smoking cessation. Harmful policies could drive vapers back to smoking or black markets, profiting tobacco and pharma industries. Vapers must advocate for evidence-based, harm reduction approaches to preserve health gains and choices. Misinformation must be challenged to protect the right to safer alternatives. EU policies should promote accessibility to vaping for public health benefits. Now is the time for vapers to speak up against harmful regulations.
