Big Tobacco's infiltration of vaping advocacy undermining harm reduction efforts at critical moment

Big Tobacco continues obstructing progress by hijacking health narratives - notably through its calculated vaping shift in recent years. Despite its rhetoric on smokeless products, new data reported reveals that the tobacco industry remains firmly dependent on cigarette sales, which accounted for roughly three-quarters of Western tobacco giants' revenue in 2024. Moreover, Big Tobacco stocks are soaring, fueled by rising prices and continued global demand. Make no mistake - the tobacco industry has not used vaping as a tool for change, but as a hedge against decline.
