The Royal College of Physicians concludes their impact so far has been very positive. Theyve helped many thousands of people to quit and the switch from tobacco smoking is a dramatic step towards better health. It says any possible harm from long-time use is likely to be very small and it concludes fears that e-cigarettes are a gateway to smoking are unfounded. The report has been widely welcomed though the Faculty of Public Health has sounded a note of caution. It said that more research was needed to understand the risks.
