“This is a really bad thing,” said Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, the director of the C.D.C., who noted that research had found that nicotine harms the developing brain. “This is another generation being hooked by the tobacco industry. It makes me angry.”
" The decline in cigarette use among teenagers accelerated substantially from 2013 to 2014, dropping by 25 per cent, the fastest pace in years."
So Tom Frieden thinks that is a "bad" thing and "It makes me angry" like a child who dropped his pacifier.
It makes him so mad that teen smoking is at the lowest point ever.
Lowest since they started keeping track!
"Anti-tobacco advocates have suggested e-cigarettes would become a gateway to cigarettes among youth. In Sweden and Norway, a rise in the use of snus, asmokeless tobacco product, was followed by a sharp decline in cigarette use.
“They’re not a gateway in, and they might be accelerating the gateway out,” said David B. Abrams, executive director of the Schroeder Institute for Tobacco Research and Policy Studies, an anti-tobacco group."
See, some in tobacco control have this thing.
It's called common sense.
