15 past-Presidents of @srntorg agree:
Vaping increases smoking cessation. This impact could be much larger if:
- public health paid more attention to adult smokers
- smokers received accurate information on relative risks
"That is not happening."

"The need to pay attention to ADLT smokers is particularly important from a #SocialJustice perspective."
Todayβs smokers are disproportionately:
-lower income
-LGBTQ community
-People with #MentalHealth issues

"For smokers with serious #MentalHealth distress, 2/3rds of their 15-year loss of life expectancy compared with [neurotypical] nonsmokers may be attributable to their smoking. Vaping might assist them to quit."

"To the more privileged members of society, todayβs smokers are invisible. Many affluent, educated persons believe the problem of smoking has been largely 'solved.' Yet 1 in 7 US adults remains a smoker today."

70% of past-Presidents of @srntorg agreed to this statement.
There are 26 past-Presidents. All were invited to sign. 1 was unreachable. 3 had commitments that might be seen as conflict of interest. That leaves 22.
7 "declined to co-author."

15 past-Presidents of @srntorg agree: safer than smoking; help smokers quit; gateway claims are dubious or false.
The authors deserver applause from adult ex-smokers who vape. They risked their reputations to tell the truth. They will be attacked.
