A survey from Action on Smoking and Health (UK) has found that nearly three million people in Britain have successfully quit smoking with the aid of vapes in the last five years. This new insight reinforces the effectiveness of vaping in creating a viable pathway to assist smokers in transitioning to reduced-risk alternatives and providing a benefit to public health. ? The survey also highlights the need for great education around reduced-risk products, with half of adults in the UK believing that vaping is as harmful as smoking, when in reality, Public Health England estimates that it is 95% less harmful. ? It is statistics like these that demonstrate the value and importance of the work we do at Plxsur, especially during the month of Stoptober. We are aligned with NHS England during their Stoptober campaign and, as a responsible vaping company, we remain focused on educating consumers to have a better understanding of vaping and empowering them to make positive health choices. ?

Now we have your attention. Let’s talk about bras and boobs of all sizes. When someone collapses from cardiac arrest, every second counts. But if that person is a woman, she's far less likely to get CPR or be defibrillated. Why? Bystanders hesitate. Sometimes it’s discomfort about removing her bra, fear of touching her chest, or just not recognising what a heart attack even looks like in a woman. But holding back over saving a life? That's a mindset we can't afford. Boobs are more than just a barrier. From smaller bras to larger bras and everything in between, they can get in the way of properly placing defibrillator pads. Big, small, and in between,any bra has to go so the shock can do its work. The underwire doesn’t hurt her, but it does interfere with the shock, so yes, it’s got to go. But let’s be real, this hesitation isn’t just about bras. It’s the discomfort, the squeamishness about touching a woman’s chest. It’s the fear of crossing a line in a moment that demands action. And while people stand there deciding what’s appropriate, lives slip away. We cannot let embarrassment, fear, or outdated ideas about women’s bodies keep us from doing what’s needed. Each second we wait? That’s survival slipping further out of reach. This is not a choice. It’s life or death, and our comfort should never come before someone’s life. So whatever you call them, boobs, breasts, or jugs—big, small, or somewhere in between, get them out of the way when it’s time to act. Saving a life means removing the bra, and that’s that. ??
