Vaping crackdown: Which countries are trying to ban single-use vapes amid rising health concerns?
Several countries are cracking down on disposable e-cigarettes, which have become popular among teens, due to health concerns. When e-cigarettes first came to the market, they were advertised as the lesser of two evils, helping people move away from traditional cigarettes and the health risks associated with smoking. But in more recent years, vapes have become something of a trend among young people. The single-use vape - also known as a “puff bar” - is practically an accessory item, and an increasing number of teenagers can be seen donning the flashy stick. Several countries around the globe are considering banning them to curb the phenomenon.
