The Impact of the New Jersey Flavour Ban
New Jersey's 2020 ban on flavored e-cigarettes led to a decline in sales of flavored vapes, while menthol e-cigarette sales increased pre-ban. Following the ban, sales dropped rapidly, then slowed. Flavored cigar sales rose initially but later declined, and cigarette sales increased post-ban. Research conducted by Hrywna, Teotia, Miller Lo, Giovenco, and Delnevo analyzed sales data from before and after the ban, showing various trends in e-cigarette, cigar, and cigarette sales in New Jersey. The study suggests a connection between flavor bans and changes in smoking rates. Readers can contact MPs to advocate for the importance of flavors in smoking cessation.
