because i don't like sitting here criticizing a us president over international foreign policy at all, but he deserves it up next to commentary, takes a closer look at the tobacco industry and its promotion of electronic products despite a parent health risk. that's it from a team and myself, sean thomas, who will be in the hot seat next hour to take you through the night global headlines to join us again. he on our team to nation. ah, once again, we've got ourselves into a quagmire. member that more popular work during the vietnam era. and afghanistan is yet another military quagmire. $2.00 trillion dollars. couple of 1000 soldiers died. and for the same reason, there was no clearly stated mission. there was no incentive to win, right? because all the contractors are getting fat and rich. and so finally they just had

to give up the ghost less than one year ago. the 17 year old from detroit underwent a double lung transplant. previously, daniel had assumed that the cigarettes were harmless, at least that's what he had always heard. i didn't think it was dangerous that the worst that could happen is maybe getting addicted to nicotine, which at that time it didn't feel like they feel that because i was just a kid does doing things. yeah. and the only really like i just heard that it was a healthy alternative to figure out like, oh, it won't hurt you. is it good for you don't like that. like, it really wasn't true though. the american boy is one of those vapors who have gone on to develop everly. this new pulmonary disease has been linked to the use of

e cigarettes. daniel consumed the same products as his friends. none of them have experienced any issues. but for daniel in september of 2019 his life took a dramatic turn. that night i went to the e. r and this is the 1st day i ever had symptoms and it just went down from there. and i forgot everything that happened for 50 days, and i knew long as like literally just out of nowhere just kind of happened. daniel's lungs stopped functioning normally. on an x ray. healthy lungs will appear as black. as a result of the inflammation daniels were white. in the usa, in 2019, they were around 3000 cases of emily, resulting in the deaths of over 50 people. the cause of the severe lung damage is thought to be the victim. an acetate illegally used as a thickener in the east cigarette liquids. new york north shore hospital has also

treated such patients. we were very happy when a cigarette 1st came out because we were trying to get our smokers off of cigarettes. we use this as an alternative, we gave them nicotine replacement in this, and many patients felt like there were smoking cigarettes smoked a lot less or not at all. and we were happy that this was a real alternative. so what this has turned into is very unfortunate for us because it was a harm reduction that has now turned into this unknown. so we can't, in good conscience say that it's okay to use just nicotine replacement products because we don't even know if those are safe. the theory is that the unregulated t h. c. mixed products are likely the biggest culprit, but we have patients who claim they have not done those and are still sick. so i don't think we have the full answer as to what's going on and some people think it's the flavor and some people think it's the oil that it's mixed. and the lung biopsies have given us different results for different patients. so we don't have

a clear, consistent answer from that either. so until we know better, i can't say that it's a harm reduction for the lung specialist. inflammation in the lungs of elderly patients is easily spotted on x rays and c t scans. you can see that there is a breathing tube here in the right, and here the lungs should be nice and black like this up here. and i can see by looking at this that the lungs are not filled with air, which is what they should be. they're filled with the material that should not be there. this is a cat scan. we started, the top of the cat scans, looks very much like normal lung starting at the top. and as we come down with the cat scan, we can see more and more patches of white area. both sides of his lungs are involved. both areas are getting wider and wider as we go down, making it very hard for oxygen, diffuse across these sick areas of lungs should never see the brown keel tree come

out like this. none of it is good for our lungs. we know that in all of these products, patients, lungs are fighting to decrease the inflammatory response fighting to clear what they're, what they're taking in. so the only thing that really your lungs are supposed to taken and it's healthy for your lungs as fresh air as you said. everything else is a problem and causes lung disease everything. so these are the poles. after safety on sunday, i've already taken about 20 pills this morning at 830 and 9 am. i have to take 2 more at lunch time and then about 10 more at 9 p. m. like my old healthy body is now dependent on all these pills to even stay alive and be able to breathe. so that's like one of the main points that kind of messes with

me. a lot of my head for daniel's mother, tommy, and the new situation means constant pill counting. she's glad her son survives at all. since the incident, his insistent is practically non existent. it causes anxiety to make sure that he's, he's taking his should keep to keep on anti rejection. there's anti fungal, anti viral blood pressure medicine like every kid at school, i feel like most of them have tried or are still addicted. his twin brother is

still addicted, so it's really sad when you see that he watched him go through everything and, and it's still addicted to nicotine. and to paving daniel had tried a variety of e cigarette products together with his friends. according to him, getting hold of them was no challenge. it's pretty easy for people to get them, especially around here. basically any they shop or anything like they don't card and they don't really care how it will do. as long as you look like old enough, then they don't really care. so what's happening now that they've been around for a few years, we're beginning to find evidence in the population that people who use the cigarettes have more heart attacks. they have more strokes, they have more lung disease. and you know, every year as we learn more,

the risks get higher and you know, i think we're not quite there yet, but in the end i think we're going to realize cigarettes are about as dangerous as cigarettes. our professor shaun works at the new york institute of environmental medicine. he and his team are studying the effects on myself. e cigarette paper ah, animals that inhaled the vapor for 12 weeks showed damage to the d. n. a of the long and hot, but what happens if the mice inhaled e cigarette vapor for an entire year? the researchers have also investigated this question. the next with the days that way exposed to mice for a long period of time. because kids are usually pick

a couple of decades to develop like tobacco smoke carpet take it to so you mileage the term with they had let a weapon for one year, fisher almost one filled out their lifespan for 20 years or so human term. so would that them smoke at the weapon for why year 54 weeks. and then we'll open up. when the scientist looked at the animals organs, 9 to the 40 mice had developed a lunch humor. the scientists also found evidence of the possible development of blood cancer. the nicotine from the e cigarette had converted into constant genic substances in much of the same way as in the burning of tobacco. this, along to him of an alarming finding, the nicotine a p as far from homeless to health as is claimed. nor does nicotine vaporize ation appear to protect against nitrous amine formations in the body. from all data ready shawnee support the nicotine as customer genic in mice. and where the

potential in human because the mechanism they make, the casa tumor is a go through. then i just, i mean, and i chose, i, me, has been proven on the more customer gene as well as human customer, despite the vibrant advertising campaigns and the cutting edge design of the devices. e cigarettes may not be as harmless as a manufacturer suggest. what we found this with smoke tobacco seminar among the nuclear, to combat the issue grid, the da da da damage you will observe very similar and the effect on the diego repair are very similar, and the have the protein of it is similar. so that's why i think we have to be very,

very careful to make that recommendation the emission. delores parkinson francisco on a spring day in 2019 it's the place to meet for young people. in particular, on the weekend, smoking is actually forbidden the park as a sleeping or smoking marijuana. instead of handing out citations, the par gone, prefers to explain this in a friendly manner. the jew e cigarette is particularly popular in the usa. what's so special about this brand? the small and it's easy to work and it's easy to figure out how to use and they tell them everywhere. so it's very available as an adult and i know that it killed me, but it also does that make sense?

provide some level of satisfaction. jewel is also an e cigarette. liquids used in fuel devices contain nicotine, so this system upon june uses purchase the liquids in pre filled pots that are inserted in the mouthpiece. the 1018 tobacco giant entry. the parents company of philip morris usa invested heavily in june and now own 35 percent of the brand industry observers on surprise. it's modern design jewel is very much a cool brand for so extremely easy to use. one of which is highly appealing units. but what makes the nicotine feel so effective? according to the patient application from the inventive jewel, the nicotine source ensure that the nicotine reaches both of physical and

psychological reward pathways up to 3 times more rapidly than with conventional nicotine. what does this mean exactly? what you all figured out is by using a nicotine salt and putting beds, joy acid in the liquid, to, to make the liquid more acidic, they can deliver much higher doses of nicotine and have people actually be able to inhale them, which makes the product much more dictate, and that's why when you, when you talked to kids they, they get addicted to these things very, very quickly. we're out here. it's hot is and we're doing the jewel hotbox. and even when you go to the

o. oh, you know from here so when you said that i could use it, but the good to go below was to do i see yeah, going to show you where you need to bring it in the at the moment. that's what she will cover. nancy. net force to lead me to follow does not

receive much, not although a lot nobody me and is a sucker. and you say you got a phyllis coming me personally, hon, which ah ah ah me

the man on the is spending the 200-1900 summer semester in the us. the 21 year old from nice is studying marketing and management of the university of kansas. camel has been mano as usual, cigarettes of choice since she began smoking at the age of 13. since she's been here, she's also a jewel user. the bed was rarely with me because we've got to really, jo decided to me to present up to see when we meet up, which was you could take an including sometime if you do me a 100 bucks. welcome to me. even while

jewel caps he'll sold in europe can contain a maximum of 20 milligrams nicotine per milliliters. the pods over the atlantic can contain up to $59.00 milligrams per milliliter. that's because in the u. s, there is no legally prescribed limit for nicotine european limit values for the nicotine content of e cigarettes, or one aspect of the e u tobacco products directive. what protections of nicotine limits of the tobacco directive actually provide? in see 1019 jewels launched a technically modified version of its liquid pods in europe. the older jewel pods contain the maximum amounts permitted in europe of 20 milligrams of nicotine per millimeter. the new pods have cut nicotine levels to 18 milligrams per milliliter. why would a tobacco company voluntarily reduce the amount of literacy? according to a recent study from the german federal institute for risk assessment and the

tobacco devora tree in sigma irving and the dupont sold in germany now come with a new kind of wick. the me shows the wick in the old version. jesse shows the week in the june pod sold on the american market. the picture in the middle shows the week in the modified e version. as the image shows, it is significantly larger. what effect as it has according to the study, the old version of the european jupiter, released an average of just over 20 micrograms per part. with each modified your point is around 3 times the amount of nicotine averaging over 60 micrograms,

almost as much as the amount of nicotine delivered by the liquids in american devices. with a technical slate of hand, the company has succeeded in increasing the quantity of vaporized liquid list releases morning into the user inhales, where they will not be aware of this fact. this means that still decades later nicotine manipulation continues to play a major role in the industry from filter gates to which the filter is to tobacco cigarettes. the wic is to the jewel e cigarette. the tobacco industry seems to keep finding ways to stretch consumer protection laws to that limits helpful therapies and politics have for a long time tried to put obstacles in their way in 2003. remember, states of the world health assembly adopted the w h o framework convention on

tobacco control, france, germany, and the european union. but also among the signatories, the 181 countries that ratified the treaty undertook to take the following measures . among others, a comprehensive band on tobacco advertising limits on lobbying a ban on sales of tobacco products to young people. launch mornings on packaging, a ban on descriptions, such as mild or light and smoking bands in public spaces. the treaty came into force in 2005 so that goes measure the can say, you know, such a certain amount due, bought the most dreaded. for some politicians to fight against the tobacco industry has been a key policy objective in france. then president shack she rock even declared a war on tobacco and not without success. the french had always known she rec, as a passionate smoker. 2 years after his declaration of war on the tobacco industry,

the number of cigarettes sold in france plummeted from over 80000000000 to under 55000000000. barack obama, a smoker himself, also led by example, a few years aftershocks, iraq. he signed a new anti smoking law and primarily protecting children from the harmful effects of smoking each day. 1000 young people under the age of 18 become new regular daily smokers and almost 90 percent of all smokers that began at or before their 18th birth thing. i know i was one of these teenagers and so i know how difficult it can be to break this habit when it's been weather for a long time. year after year, policymakers are making it harder for the tobacco industry to get their products onto the market. today it's clear to everyone smoking is lethal. for the tobacco industry, on the other hand, every dead smoke co represents a financial loss. what they need is new consumers its

fashion, we kimberly, marina whom and zita is sure most latest creation. ah, fashion shows such as this costs up 215-0000 euros. boom and zeta counts as a study amongst the young designers of berlin. wants to present her designs to a wider audience. she needs the help of sponsors, me from the ons into someone else. my front desk, i'm sorry i was saying was i was i get food stamps and it's been like, this is really no papa john's gamma. the native of vienna also seems to appreciate her partnership with icon. as a sponsor, the company provides financial support to the designer. in return,

the icon is prominently displayed on the logo. my cause is the new innovation from phillip morris, the food decades. the tobacco industry has cultivated its image by sponsoring events in the areas of art and culture. ah, as far back as the 1900 seventy's, philip morris was investing in gin culture in the form of manger art exhibitions, me. austin and philip morris went on. much indulge though not annoyed philip morris italian as titled a gazelle shaft as a voice was one fight. as guns was on this invention to start wool was he in

doctrine? so hold off on sundays. a notice of failure discourse shown on the t got at the begun, must manage heck deficient were friendship team and ben moon. so now if got to say that it's shown on t c. forbidden or michel some quick to on the sun to further figure on the last father forbidden. they fund ards organizations, they fund women's organizations, they fund sporting groups, politicians, political party scientists, anybody who will take their money as a way to try to embed themselves in the culture. and they always say, oh, we're just doing it because we're good citizens, by sponsoring shows such as this phillip morris composition, it's my cause innovation as a part of the fashion world far from the deadly world of cigarettes addiction. previously the task of artic submissions it's now hip fashion designers give

a positive spin on products from the very same tobacco industry. i'm fine. thank you very much and i've been calling has yet been complied. argument among my not the interesting me smile. what kind of mental health issues you kind of stylish ah messages using an icon is completely normal after a 1st try used as quickly acquire a taste for the product. special about cigarettes, word by vaporizing liquids. i cause the uses a compressed form of tobacco, the so called tobacco sticks, inserted into the top of the device. these devices do not actually burn the tobacco, but you sophisticated electronics to heat it up. that's why they're known as tobacco heaters would use. there is no smoke vapor. what there's always,

philip morris is the market leader among the tobacco giants anonymous with the legendary marlborough. bradley were rich and full. the old mom look. and today's, because it gives the paper not smoke, it might seem help you at 1st glance, but it also contains nicotine and nicotine is addicted. the e martinez, president of the national committee against tobacco addiction needs no further convincing objectives than i just could. you. tba said the fatal soft cuddly. z addict allen good teen in opa. kids soft delighted. one any good in it? all? love love the whole sky d. c. she lives in the of the soft yield. the lead example. any good teen biskin bars. say michel, victor, math deal and i did on any good in the physical class. could do that had really focus on already in the 1900 sixty's that tobacco industry was working on an

alternative to the tobacco cigarette hope was to prevent smokers from quitting, despite growing awareness of the risk to health. even then the industry envisaged a vapor based cigarette. however, the country to expectations the food to cigarette continue to sell. the marketing strategies took effect and the project was discontinued. it's clear today, the vapor cigarette was simply ahead of it's time. 2 like you have the jim saw puzzle where you don't quite have all the pieces in some of the pieces you have are distorted, but can you put it together enough to see what the picture is showing you? and it's that these cigarettes are making the tobacco at the demick worse all

the ah ah, ah, oh the the once again, we've got ourselves into a quagmire. remember that whereas the popular word during the vietnam era and the

afghan stan is yet another military quagmire. $2.00 trillion dollars, couple of 1000 soldiers died. and for the same reason, there was no clearly stated mission. there was no incentive to win, right? because all the contractors are getting fat rich. until finally they just had to give up the ghost. ah, i use

the ah, the fire in chaos around the international airport and cobble as ever more atkins tried to desperately flee their country and i want you to make it push me out. they kick me out though, would you mind being able to stick to that? yes, it seems that we feel that quite this chart that you're seeing here. they're all clues. local journalists gives us a tour around cobble to see how life has changed. ah .
