The popularity of e -cigarettes that can be eliminated or vapes has decreased before a UK’s prohibition On their sale on June 1, I found a study.
Researchers believe that VAPE users are turning into VAPES and re -rechargeable VAPES in anticipation of ban.
The percentage of people between the ages of 16 and 24 who use VAPES is mainly available by about 63 % to 35 %, according to the University of the University of London University (UCL).
Using generally stopped between January 2024 and 2025 in all adults over the age of 16, after several years of great growth.
The UK government’s ban on available VAPES and one use aims to stop garbage, in most cases, Vapes cannot be recycled and often ends in the landfill or natural environments.
The embargo also aims to address high rates of youth evaporation and protect children from harm.
UCL study searched for scanning data on Vaping habits in England, Wales and Scotland before the announcement and after the announcement of the ban.
The study used data from the smoking tool group study, which collected data on 88,611 people between the ages of 16 years or more.
Before the embargo, between January 2022 and January 2024, the comfort between those between the ages of 16 and over 8.9 % increased to 13.5 %.
In adults between the ages of 16 and 24, use increased sharply, from 17 % to 26.5 %.
After announcing the ban, the researchers found a decrease in the number of fumes using electronic cigarettes that can be eliminated mainly-in all age groups, especially between 16 and 24 years.
The study asked VAPE users only about their main selection of the device.
Dr. Sarah Jackson, who works in the Tobacco and Alcohol Research Group at the University of California, the main author of the BBC, told the BBC that she believes that “more people turn into re -filling devices” instead of completely stopping Vaping.
“We often see people changing their behavior in response to imminent policy changes before entering into work,” she added.
Vapes that can be eliminated are mono -use devices, which come pre -filled with VAPE liquid, while the applicable and rechargeable devices (reusable) have a longer life and are often a long -term way to overcome.
The reusable VAPE VAPE contains a VAPE liquid that can be repaired and a battery that can be recharged.
Dr. Jackson adds that VAPE manufacturers also rushed to respond to the next ban, as the “most popular” brands that can be eliminated produce re -recharge versions of their most popular models.
“It is very similar in design, colors, flavors and even the price,” she says.
While Dr. Jackson believes that it is too early to know whether the new government’s strategy will expel young people from Vaping, she maintains that health legislators face a “balance issue”.
“We know that it makes sense to do something to try to reduce the huge numbers of young people who eat Vaping, but the main public health priority here is still smoking,” she says.
“This is much more harmful and kills a lot of people every year, so we need to make sure that any political measures are offered to treat young people do not postpone people using VAPES, which are very effective in smoking smoking.”
