Not really. It's not 100% yes, but it's a pretty safe bet that it's less harmful (as in: still bad bad but less). The reason that health advisory boards are hesitant to say that too loud it's by no means clear that the increase of vaping is going to help society as a whole. Because vaping is unhealthy in its own but also because the addiction to nicotine that comes with it may end up turning people into smokers.
