The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Mondays

Evidence vapes may not be the smoking cessation tool they're cracked up to be. Latest research from Otago University has analysed data related to people's smoking and vaping habits through 2018 to 2020. Overall, vapers proved just as likely to move to cigarettes as smokers were to pick up vaping. Lead author Andre Mason says contrary to the desired result, vaping has emerged as just another smoking-related behaviour. He says it raises an important question to be considered when evaluating policies related to both vaping and smoking. LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
