      Let me be clear on 2 things: 1) There is a worsening epidemic of youth ecig use/ vaping in our country. 2) We must do all we can as parents, policy makers, and health advocates to ensure no young person uses these products!

          Let me be clear on 2 things: 1) The "Never used tobacco before" number of youth #vaping is 0.6%. The rest are ex-smokers. #HarmReduction 2) It's NOT the government's job to parent. The answer to the supposed "epidemic" is, in fact, apPARENT. Advocates in the UK recognize #vaping

          You know an even worse epidemic in our country right now? Opioids and cigarettes. It would be amazing if those were addressed half as much as what ecigs are being addressed. Funny what the money from big tobacco and Pharma can do.

          Let me be clear on two things you've stated: 1: "Few youth use any nicotine product (even cigarettes) daily- hard to obtain, and hard to use around adults regularly." 2 "Now if you are talking lower nicotine in combustibles, I’m all for that."pic.twitter.com/C49GiqCQHu

          Of course, because lower nicotine in cigs doesn't reduce smoking, it increases it as people will smoke more to get the same nic fix.

          Ecig/vaping is already illegal for minors. Possibly increased enforcement would be effective. No one wants kids, or non-smokers, to vape. Limit nicotine levels and kids won't use vape for the buzz.
