Last week, a report assessing the carcinogenic risk of vaping compared to smoking was released in the New Zealand Medical Journal. It combined data from previous global research studies to try to calculate cancer risk from vaping.
While this risk was found to be currently “unquantifiable”, the report did conclude that vapes’ cancer risk is likely lower than cigarette smoking but higher than normal levels, meaning using vapes to help quit smoking was viable– but anyone else taking up vaping is unnecessarily increasing their carcinogenic risk.
To discuss the report's findings, addiction issues, and potential preemptive government action, producer Thomas spoke with University of Auckland Associate Professor George Laking.
