Vaping dangers explained after Paul Danan dies following 'obsessive' e-cig use

Vaping has become popular as a substitute for smoking, with an increase in users in Scotland, including those under 16. While it is considered less harmful than smoking, vaping still poses health risks like addiction and lung damage. Hollyoaks star Paul Danan's recent death was attributed to excessive vaping, highlighting the potential dangers. The NHS warns of long-term health impacts, with concerns similar to those of traditional cigarettes. Belgium has banned e-cig sales due to health and environmental concerns, while Scotland and the UK plan to ban single-use vapes. The true extent of vaping's harm may not be fully realized for decades.
