 Unfortunately there has been several deaths, and several thousand infections from the H1N1
virus (more commonly known as the Swine flu virus), the world's most recently declared pandemic by the WHO(World Health Organisation).

You may have heard about electronic cigarettes being called by several other names such as an e-cigarette, e cig, i-cig or electric cigarette. These cigarettes allow you the prospect to simulate the act of smoking.
It offers some of the same benefits that smokers get from smoking a normal cigarette. However, these electronic versions of cigarettes are allowing people the chance to shy away from the health and legal issues that have found themselves surrounding conventional cigarettes.
Electronic cigarettes appear, feel and even taste a lot like a cigarette that you may be used to smoking. Nevertheless, despite all the similarities to normal cigarettes these e-cigs do reveal another role altogether.
These cigarettes have a number of features that make them appear to be genuine. Whilst you are inhaling, a red LED lights up at the tip. |
