A new study presented as an abstract in the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2020 provides new evidence about clinical symptoms and EVALI-like symptoms experienced by e-cigarette users compared to non-users. At least that is what the study is supposed to show. There is also a press release by the American Heart Association, titled “Lung symptoms common among users of e-cigarettes and related products”. The study examined 1432 current e-cigarette users who completed an online survey in 2016 (please remember that). They asked if they had any of the following symptoms: dry mouth, cough, nausea, headache, loss of taste/smell, shortness of breath, chest pain, irregular heartbeat, heartburn, high blood pressure, itching/burning skin, rash, bad breath, irritability, leg cramps, runny nose, stuffy nose, sore throat, upset stomach, hoarse voice, nightmares. They also checked for any of the following EVALI-like symptoms:cough, nausea, loss of taste/smell, shortness of breath, chest pain, stomach pain They found that e-cigarette users had higher odds of having any clinical symptoms (OR: 1.90) and of EVALI-like symptoms (1.70) compared to non-users. Users of flavored liquids also had higher odds for symptoms compared to non-users. Unfortunately there is not much to say. My criticism will be brief. The study (and the press release) are an insult for science and common sense. Scientists suggest that symptoms linked to EVALI (an outbreak that happened in 2019) were present in 2016. Additionally, EVALI-like symptoms included non-specific symptoms that could be easily linked to COVID-19. Perhaps COVID-19 is a disease caused by e-cigarettes. And it was already present in 2016. The scientific community needs to urgently examine this possibility and release another impressive statement about the risks of evil e-cigarettes. I hope that the creeping politicization of science will end soon… But I am not at all confident about that.

还有什么病毒导致丧失味觉嗅觉?这是很特异性的特征吧。
大妈的这地洗得。
确实好笑。稍微一炸一下,大妈们就跳脚了。
她要是敢怀野种,我第二天就让她离婚滚粗,我去接盘大娘子。
所以呢?为什么至今没医学期刊关于电子烟和新冠之间关系的论文,如果真是电子烟引起的,实验不难做啊,涉事的电子烟搞来做实验不难吧,证明电子烟导致新冠分分钟诺奖到手了,为啥亲华的WHO视而不见,因为没人丢得起这个人,更何况那时大家有口罩吗?有封城封国的吗?国际飞机停飞了吗?医院除了传染病和做手术有人用PPE吗?酒吧餐馆电影院哪哪都是人有社交距离吗?不是说新冠专治不服吗?这么不服的医院ICU爆满了吗?如果你非让我在电子烟和美军投毒选一个,没别的可能,我都不会选电子烟,因为首先不会只是武汉爆发应该是全世界多点爆发
重感冒鼻塞时会。。
没问题,正因为隔壁老王有能力造娃,所以你娃是隔壁老王造的可能性不能排除,如果你娃长得还跟隔壁老王有几分像,疑心不疑心你自己看着办。 不疑心就开心养娃,疑心了也很简单,去亲子鉴定
和重感冒有关系吗 难道电子烟引起的肺炎 ,以美国的医疗水平判断不出来 会当成重感冒?
