On September 21, according to a report by Vapingpost, although Public Health England (PHE) is working hard to encourage smokers to switch to e-cigarettes to reduce the harm, most British smokers are still skeptical.

A study commissioned by the Yorkshire Cancer Research Center in 2019 surveyed 844 current smokers and 1,156 former smokers and found that tobacco users still "suspect" e-cigarettes, and many said they would not try to smoke e-cigarettes cigarette. Studies have shown that although PHE strives to encourage smokers to switch to safer alternatives, only one in ten quitters quit smoking through e-cigarettes.

Another study funded by the Cancer Research UK (CRUK) also yielded similar results. The study by King's College London was published in the journal "Cheng Pain" and showed that smokers and former smokers in the UK still believe that vaporizers are more harmful than they actually are.

Researchers from the CRUK study found that less than 6 out of every 10 people accurately believe that e-cigarettes are less harmful than tobacco. They compiled these data through an online survey of 1,720 British smokers and former smokers, and pointed out that misunderstandings about the dangers of e-cigarettes seem to be increasing, especially among smokers and those who have never tried e-cigarettes.

In response to this study, Martin Dockrell, the head of tobacco control at the Department of Public Health of the United Kingdom, said that despite the efforts of the organization, there is clearly a long way to go.

Although e-cigarettes are not without risks, they are much less harmful than smoking. If you smoke, switching to e-cigarettes can save your life.
