Disagreement, sure. 2 schools of thought, no. Most of us realize and routinely acknowledge the uncertainty re: health effects. Advocating for vaping altogether without acknowledging need for regulation to reduce youth appeal and prevent youth uptake seems naive and irresponsible.

This is a false dichotomy. There’s more nuance in the scientific discussion about the merits and/or harms of e-cigs. You somehow missed I am “they” and my “claims” regard my scientific results and their implications, which I believe. The suggestion there are “2 schools of thought” is false.

Thank you for the clearly baited lead into this with an ambiguous loaded question 🤣. I will read these with an open mind as soon as I am able.

What claims, and who are they?

Don’t go vaping my heart, especially when pregnant💨 🫀🤰 Want to know why? Find out more in the latest publication by the Alex Carll, PhD, lab in AJP-Heart, led by PhD student, Brittany Reynolds. journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.1...

Proud of Anand Ramalingam for coalescing this data to show repeat e-cigarette exposure transiently evokes arrhythmias via the beta1 adrenoceptor, consistently increases BP, changes the cardiac proteome, and persistently depresses HR and ventricular repolarization. www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10....

We need to make pregnancy and the postpartum period safe for all women. Currently, maternal mortality rates are at an all time high in the US. In order to make things safer, we need more funding, research, and representation. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39832282/

Temperature-related deaths in European cities could increase by up to 50% by the end of the century in the absence of climate change-mitigation policies, totalling up to 2.3 million additional deaths, suggests a paper published in Nature Medicine. https://go.nature.com/4glnYzU 🧪

Taking Omega3s and VitD over three years slowed biological aging by 3-4 months when combined with exercise.

The media has failed the public on a crucial matter: the derangement of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., writes @davidcorn.bsky.social.

News reports often describe him as a vaccine skeptic when he is far more dangerous than that.
