No it is not. Nicotine causes restrictions in the capillaries of the body and has been determined by the state of California to cause birth defects.
No, the fluid used in the electronic cigarette is not safe from freezing (mostly water). Note: an "E-Hooka" is a colloquial term used to describe "high end" or "mod" type electronic cigarettes (Vamo, ZMax, Lava-tube, etc.)
No one really knows yet. Electronic cigarettes are a new product, so there has not been time to study and evaluate their effects on the human body. However, it is probably safe to say that they are substantially less harmful than traditional cigarettes. The byproducts of combustion are mainly what makes cigarettes so harmful. There is no combustion with an electronic cigarette, hence, there are no harmful combustion byproducts.
The short and simple answer is that no one really knows yet. Electronic cigarettes are a new product, so there has not been time to study and evaluate their effects on the human body.However, it is probably safe to say that they are substantially less harmful than traditional cigarettes. The by-products of combustion are mainly what makes cigarettes so harmful. There is no combustion with an electronic cigarette, hence, there are no harmful combustion by-products.I would like to add that all components of the E-Liquid used in reputable E-Cig's are FDA approved for human use and consumption. The recent court case in New York resulted in the AMA & FDA putting themselves in a quandary over these chemicals.
Yes, electronic cigarettes are allowed and safe to be used even in public buildings and other places. It is because unlike with a real cigarette smoke, they do not pose threat to other people and the environment. They also do not contribute to waste as they are devices that can be used repeatedly.
In short, yes. There is no legal reason why you cannot use electronic cigarettes in an airport as they do not contain tobacco or produce harmful second-hand smoke. However, you may be approached if your electronic cigarette looks like a traditional cigarette (ie white with orange light at the end) because people may think it is a real cigarette. Some airlines have banned electronic cigarettes from their planes because it is the easiest thing to do. They do not know enough about electronic cigarettes to make a judgement about whether they are considered safe yet, so the easy option is to protect themselves by banning them.
Yes
Electronic cigarettes are not totally safe but in comparison of tobacco cigarettes it is 95% safe for the vapor as well as for others.

Well it's safer than cigarettes but it's still a major health risk.Per FDA and AMA reports there is no proof to support a claim that Electronic Cigarettes are a health risk. All ingredients in the 'juice' (liquid) of an Electronic Cigarette are approved by the FDA for human consumption, with only a warning on nicotine.
No, electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, are not safe for children, teens, or anyone who has not already been smoking. They contain nicotine, which is highly addictive and can harm brain development in children and teens. Additionally, e-cigarettes have been linked to lung injuries and deaths, and the long-term health effects of using e-cigarettes are not yet known. It is illegal to sell e-cigarettes to minors in many countries, and it is important to keep e-cigarettes and their refill liquids out of the reach of children and teens.
Not. Tar is only one of many harmful toxins present in cigarettes. You would be better off not smoking at all.
yes, as long as you explain it is not real smoke if they confront you about it
As of early 2012 there have been no extensive peer reviewed studies on the impact of electronic cigarettes on humans. Electronic cigarettes do not have the same tar and other chemicals that traditional cigarettes have, which would lead one to believe that they are "safer" than traditional cigarettes but this has not been proven.
Depending on what drugs you are speaking about. Smoking is still a drug, and is not safe. But smoking will not harm you instantley. If smoking was like drugs, they would not be on sale.
no, because you cannot suck. no smoking, drinking out of a straw, etc.
