After six months, 31% of those who had used e-cigarettes started smoking tobacco, compared to 8% of those who had never used e-cigarettes. Over the next six months, 25% of e-cigarette users reported they had smoked tobacco in the past six months, compared to 9% of those who had not used e-cigarettes.
