A primeros de este año, Nicholls y Hunt publicaron en @AddictionJrnl un artículo que pone sobre la mesa algo que llevamos décadas esquivando: el placer sigue siendo el gran ausente en la investigación, las políticas de drogas y la intervención. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Concerns have been raised that vaping has created a 'new generation of nicotine addicts'.
