I'm not going to defend the number provided, but I will note that many health authorities state that Vaping substantially less harmful than smoking. Smoking kills 1 in 2 people per that linked article. If vaping takes it down to less than 2 in 100 people, their percentage would have weight.

    But we don't really have the long-term data on vaping. While I might concede with vaping being less detrimental to the lungs than smoking, I am still skeptical towards people saying vaping is a lot better. Smoking doesn't kill you in a short amount of time, but it has existed way longer than vaping, so of course we have the data.
