Just finished reading Crackdown by @garthmullins.bsky.social and I am thankful this book has been written. If you are wondering why the streets are looking the way they do and how to better manage the problems, this book offers a lot to consider from the perspective of someone on the ground.

Vaping opponents have become post truthers, convinced like their political counterparts that blatant dishonesty pays. May be also impressed with how long flagrant dishonesty worked for Big Tobacco @drmarktyndall.bsky.social

Michael Russell famously said β€˜people smoke for the nicotine but die from the tar’. Now it’s a case of β€˜people smoke for the nicotine but die from opposition to tobacco harm reduction’. Drug harm reduction & tobacco harm reduction involve identical principles #HR25

Gross profit in US on pack of Marlboros = $4.50 & operating profit ~ $3.64. Profit per pack doubled <5years on product costs ~ 40c to make. No other legal consumer product as lucrative to make. Restricting smoke free options helps Make Big Tobacco Greatly Profitable Again & @jamomartin.bsky.social

Received a desperate message from a friend living in Kenya who has had her ARV medications abruptly stopped as the USAID sponsored clinic has been closed down. What Trump and his heartless and vile supporters have done is truly diabolical. There must be a response.
