THE jury is in on the harms of vaping, with a new study published in the Medical Journal of Australia yesterday providing the most comprehensive review yet on the health impacts of e-cigarettes.
Australian Medical Association President Prof Steve Robson said the findings of the study leave zero room for confusion about the dangers of e-cigarettes and vaping.
"The jury is in - it's time for stronger, strictly enforced regulations so we can avoid another public health crisis like tobacco," Robson said.
Some risks as per the study include addiction, poisoning, esp. in small children, seizures and loss of consciousness caused by nicotine overdose, headache, cough, throat irritation, burns and injuries from exploding batteries.
