Doing the math - death by vaping, how would we know?

I read a very confusing article HERE Oh dear - it's gone! (Or rather, I now have to register for it) 

So, I'll just try to remember - It said that from now till 2040, the number of women dying from lung cancer will grow 360% while deaths for men would increase - can't remember - 36%?. This is because my generation of women (that's me , so I identified with this report) began smoking in the 60's - and I did.

Well - we are all now in our late sixties I should think. I figured if we are snuffing it in our millions from now till 2040 - another 28years for me - we'd have had a good innings smoking or no smoking. 

 In 2040 -  women who started smoking in the sixties  will be in their nineties. 
 
I'm not arguing with experts - I'm trying to do the Math.

I must remember to tell my doctor if I get lung cancer in the next 28 years it;s probably the smoking I did for 50 years rather than the vaping I have done for over a year and intend doing in the future. 

 I can see a collision here of statistics.  Older vapers, dying from lung cancer (from smoking) might be counted as proof that vaping causes lung cancer - how would we know?
