Growing trend or overreach? Poland joins the crackdown in Europe on disposables
Poland is considering a ban on disposable vapes, following France and Belgium. The proposed legislation aims to prohibit all single-use vapes, raising concerns about a potential shift in European regulations impacting the vaping industry. The ban is part of Poland's effort to reduce youth access to affordable vaping products. Proponents argue it will protect public health, while critics fear it may lead to tax revenue losses and illegal sales. Similar bans in France and Belgium suggest a growing trend in Europe towards stricter regulations on vaping products. The long-term effects of these bans remain uncertain, with debates ongoing about their efficacy in reducing harm.
