      We share the @Surgeon_General's concerns about keeping adolescents & pregnant people safe & healthy. However, we are concerned that his presentation didn’t clearly depict the latest trends because rates of marijuana use among these groups have remained stable or decreased. THREAD

      1) No pregnant woman or youth should use cannabis! 2) 9 million 12-25 year olds report MJ use. That’s not “low” or acceptable to me- esp w ⬆️ potency = more danger 3) We shouldn’t assume legalization = education. If you have education that works to ⬇️ youth use, I’m all for it!

          1. We share your concerns about the safety of pregnant people & kids. 2. 7.5 million from your estimate includes those aged 18+; those are adults. 3. Legalization = regulated access to marijuana, which research shows limits access for kids. https://d14rmgtrwzf5a.cloudfront.net/sites/default/files/drugfacts-mtf.pdf …pic.twitter.com/yuiv6uiJhb

          Accurate quote from USSG. The 2018 National Youth Tobacco Survey found 5.8% of US high schoolers vape frequently. Subtract 1/3rd... But wait. Only 10% are never-smokers. Oh, also, 20% are 18 (adults). That's the "teen vaping epidemic." @ParentsvsVape @truthinitiative https://twitter.com/Vapingit/status/1167244365301002241 …

          Your "foot-stomping" seems to turn into tap dancing when you're not waging your favorite fearmongering campaign against THR. Where's the epidemic designation here? What about the children?https://twitter.com/Vapingit/status/1167408620016951297?s=20 …

          Why isn't this announcement an epidemic? Why are you ignoring facts since at least January? https://twitter.com/Surgeon_General/status/1167406560949264384 … pic.twitter.com/IHEvYqR8V6
