This is spiraling out of control and it will be responsible vapers who pay the price.

So 20mg of nic is the equivalent of smoking 50 cigarettes?

Smoking a whole Geek or Elf bar is the equivalent of about 48 to 50 cigarettes. These [bars] contain two milligrams of nicotine salt, so [the] equivalent 20 milligrams of nicotine."

Chugging down 30ml of 3mg juice a day is 225 cigarettes a day. WTF??

It has a very familiar sound to it, reminiscent of the US back in 2019/20 and we see how that is panning out.

Do they sell ouzo and feature small people smashing plates?

Im just glad i finally found a dr who understands what vaping is and not just spewing talking points from anti-vaping lobbyists anymore.

Im sorry this is happening there now too

Poor Vic. On 19/6 he uploads a nearly 30 minute rant on disposables especially Elf Bar and geek bar and the dangers they pose to the UK vaping industry more or less calling for them to be banned. Three days later he uploads a review of a HAR disposable as he likes the flavour range. You really couldn't make it up.
