As for warnings regarding e-cigarettes, does Mr. Dunne accept, for instance, there are now studies from the United States showing that a far higher number of those who use e-cigarettes suffer from asthma than people who have never smoked or who have never used e-cigarettes? My point is there also health risks in using e-cigarettes. While I accept it is a step down from smoking, health risks still come with it.
