      What is already known? Flavored tobacco products can appeal to youths and young adults. What is added by this report? In 2014–2018, current use of flavored electronic cigarettes increased in high schoolers and during 2015–2018 among middle schoolers.https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/68/wr/mm6839a2.htm?s_cid=mm6839a2_w …

      What are the implications for public health practice? @US_FDA regulation of manufacturing, distribution & marketing of flavored tobacco products, plus sustained implementation of comprehensive tobacco control/ prevention strategies, can further ⬇️ tobacco product use among youth

          I hate to be the one to tell you, but smoking rates started free falling when the small business owners across the country started selling e-cigs with flavored e-liquid. Nicotine gums, patches, and inhalers have such a high failure rate that it took flavored vape for us to stop.

          Teens are going to try anything that they have access to - especially if you forbid them over and over again to not try it. Getting e-cigs out of every gas station and off of the internet, will reduce the youth use rate without destroying this effective product for smokers.

          CT vaping age is 21. Any one younger can't legally buy vape. Enforce the law. Go after blackmarket vapes.

          Agree with sensible regulations and implementation of such regulations as long as no life is sacrificed in the name of another life

          So the emphasis like you said should be on sensible regulations, implementation and enforcement, not an outright ban. Wouldn’t it be prudent to work with the industry to accomplish the common goal of preventing youth use and not the one-sided bias determination of what will work?

          In a democracy, two opposing sides should be able to come together to work on a solution. Last time I check the US is a democratic country and not a tyranny where only one voice is allowed to be heard

          Meanwhile smoking rates are at historic lows thanks to flavored vaping products! Why not focus promoting harm reduction first via vapor products and eliminate the most harmful product, tobacco cigarettes? Once we have eliminated those, we can work on the less harmful products.
