About half of the 4,611 adults who took part in the survey had heard about e-cigarettes,which are battery-powered,or rechargeable cigarettes that vaporize a liquid nicotine solution.They do not produce smoke but a water vapor without smell.Sold mostly on the Internet,e-cigarettes were first made in China.
Last year the World Health Organization (WHO) warned against using e-cigarettes,saying there was no evidence to prove they were safe or helped smokers break the habit.The WHO said people who smoke e-cigarettes breathe in a fine fog of nicotine into the lungs.
Nearly a third of people questioned in the survey think that e-cigarettes should be allowed in places where smoking is forbidden,because they don’t produce smoke,but 46 percent disagree.Men who were aware of the availability of e-cigarettes were more likely than women to say they should be a choice available to smokers who want to quit.Young people,aged 18-29,and singles were the groups most open to trying e-cigarettes.Smoking is the single largest cause of preventable death worldwide,according to the WHO.
