A new study, described as a large-scale investigation, reports that smokers who switched to electronic cigarettes as a cessation aid are at increased risk for lung cancer and all-cause mortality relative to those who quit smoking altogether. The findings add to ongoing debate about the net health effects of e-cigarettes. The Zioneer previously reported on the 2025 smoking report, which found that roughly a quarter of Israeli adults smoke and e-cigarette use is rising among students.
