E-Cigarette Ban Being Planned in Oklahoma; Representative Believes it's 'More Dangerous Than Secondhand Smoke'
...and the moron of the day award goes to... (Drum roll please)
Dr. James Baker
"Baker referenced an article from Environmental Health Perspectives about a study designed "to determine if the flavoring chemical diacetyl and two other high-priority flavoring chemicals are present in flavored e-cigarettes." The usage of those chemicals made headlines in the early part of the century when it was reported that workers exposed to fume of those chemicals developed respiratory illnesses.
The study stressed that the said chemicals were present in most of the limited number of samples tested. They drew up conclusions about the safety risks but concluded that "urgent action is recommended to further evaluate the extent of this new exposure to diacetyl and related flavoring compounds in e-cigarettes."
Baker stated that he finds the said study, which is funded by the National Institute of Health grant, "a game-changer." He said he believes that it should be presented to city councilors.
"Who knows what they could put in there, I mean any juicer or anybody involved in the vaping sales could put any number of products in there," Baker said. "Without FDA (Food and Drug Administration) monitoring ... all of that could be exposed to children and lead to a much greater problem and epidemic than we have ever realized - at least with cigarettes we know what is going in there."
"at least with cigarettes we know what is going in there."
Are you fucking kidding me? Is this guy serious?
I would like to personally call him out to go check to see "what is going in there." and he would notice that everything (the 5 or 6 chemicals) in vaping is in tobacco cigarettes (along with the 3995 OTHER chemicals) but in vaping it's at a 250X to 1000X LOWER level - 5150
