Cancer is, to a large extent, a roll of the dice. Your body produces potentially cancerous cells every day. Every day, you’re rolling the dice on whether such a cell develops into something serious.

This article is paid for by the tobacco industry. Since the death of journalism most ‘news’ has become propaganda because that’s the only way to keep the lights on.

A lot of people are going to learn the hard way that vaping isn’t safe, as you have zero clue what actually goes into the vape fluid.
Inhaling fumes has always ended well for humans. /s
We literally need the fumes of plants and algae to breathe. 🤷♂️
