Are electronic cigarettes a safe way to light up?

UTMB’s Dr. Abe DeAnda Jr. was quoted is this story about the safety of e-cigarette’s. “I think overall e- cigarettes are not a great habit,” DeAnda Jr. told WFMY, “You still get the nicotine and all the badness that goes with it. The accessibility may increase usage and kids are more likely to abuse e-cigarettes.”
