None of these organizations have "industry influence." In fact, according to the @BloombergDotOrg-funded front group, @exposetobacco, the one country that makes the strongest public statements (the UK) is among the 4 least influenced by big tobacco.

It all starts to get pretty overwhelming no? And this is only 3 of 8. Thousands of experts have reviewed over 7,000 research studies on nicotine vapes ("e-cigarettes") and reached this conclusion: SAFER than smoking. Odd that @FCTCofficial continues to deny evidence.

...Nurses to deal with people-who-use-drugs get it too. The Royal Australian College of Physicians has a tepid endorsement. Then on to Germany and France.

...French National Academy of Pharmacy had some choice words for the @WHO. But it's just a Tweet, so doesn't really belong here.
...Now we move on to the USA where govt anti-vaping PSAs often contradict govt agencies' own official statements.

@American_Heart's "statement" is from a press release. Not an official statement. AAPHP physicians are at the coal face. They talk to patients. So they care.
...even @TobaccoFreeKids is here. Odd.
...then there's Canada. They're usually sensible. Except Nova Scotia.
