Switching from a failed vape and tobacco policy to a successful one

Australia’s vape and tobacco policy shows the cost of making safer products harder to access than cigarettes. Legal vapes are restricted through pharmacies, while combustible tobacco remains widely available, leaving smokers with fewer practical routes away from the most harmful option. A successful policy would regulate nicotine by risk, protect young people and keep lower-risk alternatives in legal, accountable channels. Harm reduction should replace a system that is failing both smokers and public health.
