Funny that your first two links don’t even say that. COPD is not vaping, not proven to be vaping-related.

I didn’t even bother with looking at the other two.

From the article:

“Awkwardly for the anti-smoking lobby, smokers have been strangely under-represented in all the studies for which smoking prevalence data is available. They made up just 1.4 per cent of the cases in Zhang et al, 6.7 per cent in Wan et al, 3.9 per cent in Mo et al, seven per cent in Huang et al, nine per cent in Dong et al, 10 per cent of cases in Yang et al, 1.9 per cent in Guan et al, six per cent in Zhou et al, and 6.4 per cent in Liu et al. In Shi et al, only 8.2 per cent of cases had any smoking history.”

In the above paragraph from the article, are hotlinks to TEN studies showing smokers are less affected. Argue with them, and stop lying.
