1639144385958006785 | Supporting independent, world-class research is core to @VicHealth and our mission. @TheLancet's 'People, profits, and health' series offers valuable evidence-based insights from global health experts on tackling health issues such as vaping and unhealthy food. https://t.co/rQtrKMuA2p | 20 |
1638801269795225601 | @SandroDemaio @billshortenmp @quitvic @VicHealth Rubbish! There has never been a single death from #vaping nicotine in 15 years In fact, the evidence shows that #vaping will save millions of lives This is a political statement to support @Mark_Butler_MP's flawed policy | 12 |
1638996223502974979 | While browsing reddit (had to edit out swearing)this is how people view the latest news from @TGAgovau. Congratulations, @SimonChapman6 @SandroDemaio @VicHealth people now honestly think smoking tobacco cigarettes is safer than vaping. #auspol #vaping #NSWVotes2023 https://t.co/yIlxHKIvrB | 8 |
1638661891076796416 | @SandroDemaio @billshortenmp @quitvic @VicHealth Yes, but it's a killer of #tobacco tax profits. Anyone in their right mind would celebrate the fact that #vaping is replacing #smoking as the most significant #publichealth progress in history. | 7 |
1640827337137856513 | @CancerVic @OPCAustralia study finds most commercially available toddler foods sold in Australia fail international nutrition standards. How can that be! @VicHealth @Deakin @SandroDemaio @theheraldsun https://t.co/BpHTHVjWCt https://t.co/5OgNtJl7gZ | 7 |
1637975163135488000 | Great piece by @sarzberry on how external factors are making the least healthy choices the most convenient ones. ✍️https://t.co/sm3vRl8ZD2 @SandroDemaio @VicHealth @TAPPCentre @ObesityAction @_PHAA_ @OPCAustralia @healthy_climate @GCHAlliance @eatright @IFPRI @CancerCouncilOz | 7 |
1638827701409644544 | @SandroDemaio @billshortenmp @quitvic @VicHealth Utter fabrication, sir. You have made numerous questionable claims recently about "plausible" harms associated with e-cigarettes, most of which I have ignored, but to insinuate that nicotine vaping kills people is a hideous lie and a betrayal of your duty to protect the public… https://t.co/NWp78OwraR | 5 |
1638418385053827073 | @SandroDemaio @billshortenmp @quitvic @VicHealth more crap about people going from cheap vaping to heavily taxed tobacco, that is the lie of the year so far, uk anzn smoking rates continue to fall thanks to vapes, you know that yet you spread lies and deception, SHAME ON YOU, | 5 |
1641194697464107008 | 🚨Our #Health is not *just* about a biomedical model… #PublicHealth actors need to be at *other* tables in the systems influencing and shaping people’s health and well-being - including #CDoH. - @SharonFrielOz @ANURegNet @TheLancet @VicHealth https://t.co/Xk3b7AQ1QT https://t.co/HIfWnF6tQX | 5 |
1638340998156922880 | @SandroDemaio @billshortenmp @quitvic @VicHealth Teenage nicotine consumption needs to be urgently addressed (vapes, NRTs and tobacco) Yet Public Health 'experts' and @billshortenmp only promote anti-vaping hysteria. Criminals profiting from poor regulation and illegal imports of mislabelled vapes is hardly the vaping industry. | 4 |
