Vaping can lead to cancer + Albo to deliver address to the nation

from The Briefing · host LiSTNR

A comprehensive review led by cancer researchers at UNSW has found that vaping is likely to cause lung and oral cancer, even before long-term studies can confirm the exact risk.  The study analyses a wide body of global research to assess the ability of vapes to cause cancer on their own, rather than as a gateway to smoking.   The analysis draws together clinical studies, animal experiments and laboratory research examining the chemicals produced by e-cigarettes.  In this episode of the Briefing, the study’s lead author Bernard Stewart, an Adjunct Professor in the Discipline of Paediatrics and Child Health at UNSW Sydney, joins Natarsha Belling to discuss "by far the strongest evidence" that vapes are likely to cause lung and oral cancer.  Headlines:  PM to address the nation on war in the Middle East ATO hands small business tax relief in wake of Iran war Double demerits in NSW/ACT kick in tonight for the Easter long weekend.
