The World Health Organization doesn't know what disease and it's causes are? Really?

This gets real easy from here. The disease in question is what exactly? Lung cancer? Habitual reliance on 'vapors?' What exactly is the disease? Preying on children to create a customer base for Wall Street? What is the disease? Then what causes it?

There are many reasons for lung cancer and as the poisons of cigarettes were revealed it went from primary tumor causation to secondary causes and the inhalation by children within a home environment. There are other causes of lung cancer, but, cigarettes and their PROOF of the cause out numbered any other cause in epidemiological studies. The validity of the concern of these diseases returning to tobacco dependent individuals that find cigarettes are cheaper than the vapor dispenser they BEGAN their nicotine addiction is sound. 

We know nicotine is an addictive agent in which lies the danger of cancer. It is not the nicotine that causes the cancer, but, it is the 'behavior' which causes cancer. E-cigarettes are just as much a threat to a person's health as any other vapor if it deposits the user at the doorstep of the tobacco industry.

I realize scientists are seeing a savoir within the vaporizer industry, however, that may very much not be the case and they need to be more thorough in their focus. 

When smokers enter cessation processes there is a recognition of nicotine as a vital aspect to remove the HABIT. But, the nicotine is addictive and is ALWAYS tapered off. There are few medical doctors that would recommend anyone to smoke vapors for the purpose of a nicotine addiction. There is also a side effect of e-cigs no one wants to talk about and that is the legitimate presence of cigarettes in social circles again. There are cigarette smokers today believing they're vindicated because of the presence of e-cigarettes.

So, scientists are stating e-cigs combat disease. Where? Within whom? Why? And what are the dangers of e-cigs? What is the point where vapors are inconsequential to social interaction? How do they limit social interaction? The list of questions is lengthy and none are simple to answer. What I am hearing is how scientists are stating there is a physical disease resolved by e-cigs. But, they speak nothing to dependency and/or the potential of ending such aspects in a society. What are the statistics saying and what direction do we need to move?

NO MARKETING TO CHILDREN.

(Reuters) - A group of 53 leading scientists (click here) has warned tedhe World Health Organization not to classify e-cigarettes as tobacco products, arguing that doing so would jeopardize a major opportunity to slash disease and deaths caused by smoking.

The UN agency, which is currently assessing its position on the matter, has previously indicated it would favor applying similar restrictions to all nicotine-containing products.

In an open letter to WHO Director General Margaret Chan, the scientists from Europe, North America, Asia and Australia argued that low-risk products like e-cigarettes were "part of the solution" in the fight against smoking, not part of the problem.

"These products could be among the most significant health innovations of the 21st century – perhaps saving hundreds of millions of lives. The urge to control and suppress them as tobacco products should be resisted," the experts wrote....
