    Iowa Attorney General Champions Vaping And Slays E-Cigarette Myths

    excerpt from link above: Miller warned public health officials to be aware of how their messages will be received and to keep in mind unintended consequences.

    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    excerpt from link above: In conjunction with the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH), the mayor’s public information and social media campaign aims to highlight “the highly addictive nature of nicotine” and the “toxic chemicals and poison found in e-liquids.”
    ______________________________________________________________________________________
    excerpt from link above: The CDPH also claims that “vaping devices such as e-cigarettes being unregulated at the federal level.” Emanuel was joined by Dr. Robert A. Winn, Director of the University of Illinois Cancer Center, who claimed “widespread use of e-cigarettes is re-normalizing smoking in our society, which makes this a very pertinent public health issue.”

    Now this is a new twist to the vaping vs cigarette argument. Although Iowa’s Attorney General Tom Miller is clearly championing the vaping cause the end of the article may leave some people with the wrong impression. So who is this attacking or defending; Vaping with its' “toxic chemicals and poison found in e-liquids.” or cigarettes with the “widespread use of e-cigarettes is re-normalizing smoking in our society, which makes this a very pertinent public health issue.” comment? I am looking at this article and thinking that the article itself may have some "unintended consequences".
