Why are vapers so convinced that vaping is "safe"? The supposed "safety" of e-cigs mostly looks like industry marketing to people desperate to preserve their habit.

I vape and I don't know if vaping is safe or not. But here's what I do know. From seeing how my body reacts to it, I think vaping is a better alternative than cigarettes to get nicotine. I am a full advocate for further research in to vaping and identifying the exact side effects.

It would be implausible for vaping to not be less harmful than smoking. And harm reduction is good! But that's a far cry from "vaping is 'safe'".
