Vaping is Vapid


      (Chart by Mikael Haggstrom)

It doesn’t take much imagination to figure that vaping is a vapid activity.

However, it’s not just a zero-sum game.  The loss experienced by vapers can be far greater than the commercial gains of vaping providers.  Whereas money can be replaced, human life cannot.

Stanford researchers claim that teenage and young-adult vapers “were five to seven times more likely than non-vapers to get COVID-19.”  That’s not just a significant difference, but a “huge” one.

And that’s not all.  Vapers are more susceptible to asthma, pneumonia, collapsed lung, bronchitis and seizures.
