Will the vaping trend leave an entire generation with lung damage for life?

This week, one of the UK’s leading cancer experts warned that electronic cigarettes could ‘wake up’ cancer cells – and we could be dealing with the fall out of youngsters’ vaping habits for years to come. Recent data shows that one in 10 11-15 year-olds regularly vape. Deborah Arnott, Chief Executive for Action on Smoking and Health, explains why she thinks these figures are a cause for concern. But MoS’ health reporter Ethan Ennals – who has been investigating the topic - is sceptical about the alarmist claims. In fact, he says, as it stands, there’s little evidence to suggest they do much harm at all.
