is it time to bring in more restrictions on this?
Australia have banned all vapes other than via prescription.
some of these vapes release huge amounts of tiny metallic particles into the body, which we have no idea what the long term effects are going to be (I'm sure it's not good though)
back when I was in school, only a small proportion of kids smoked, maybe 0-5% from the end of primary school rising to 25-30% by the end of secondary school .
according to my kids, and a load of teachers I know, vaping is absolutely rife in schools now. like 50% of year 7s regularly vaping - far far higher than the equivalent cigarette usage before they brought in vapes.

I pick my daughter up from school twice a week, the amount who walk up the road Vaping, they must be addicted to it
one girl vapes while she waits for her mum to pick her up ( and then vapes as she gets in the car ) , she is Yr7 , she must do a blend though, I can smell Apple Pie with a twist of cinnamon and a after smell of candy floss
It had a peak about 6 years ago...literally nobody is vaping in Sweden. Fad over imo
some of the packaging / flavours are clearly marketed at kids - I think we shot follow suit and ban it like the Aussies have
The way people go around clutching them - likes its life support or something. Especially the big fat chunky ones.
A young lady I know, who never bothered with anything like smoking, decided to start vaping when she was 26, around the same time her and her partner started trying for a baby. Now she's up the duff and has had to give them up, she's finding it a bit tough
It's for the same reason it always was, they think it's cool and are usually a bit thick.
People moving down from smoking was a good idea, in theory to help give up, but most stay addicted to them so a waste of time really.
You see knobheads in cars blowing out two tonnes of the stuff out of the window it looks ridiculous, but they must think they look sooooo cool.
It is like walking behind Ivor the engine whilst being assaulted by cheap perfume.
Quite how they managed to persuade people to think it is a good look is beyond me.
Genius marketing move though.
