According to Baotintuc on July 18, according to data from the Australian Department of Health, between 2022 and 2023, an average of one-third of high school students in Australia will smoke vapes.

Becky Freeman, head of the School of Public Health at the University of Sydney, said that in recent years, especially around the COVID-19 pandemic, when schools were closed and public health focused on epidemic prevention and control, the proportion of high school students using vapes has risen sharply. Disposable high-concentration nicotine vape products have become extremely popular in Australia.

Freeman believes that part of the reason why vapes are popular among young people is that these products are promoted as different from traditional cigarettes. In addition, traditional cigarettes are expensive and have health warning images on them, while vapes do not have these, and young people believe that vapes are safe and socially acceptable.

Professor Freeman also pointed out that although the law prohibits the sale of vapes in retail stores other than pharmacies, in fact, “black market” sales make it easy for teenagers to obtain these products.

According to Baotintuc on July 18, data from the Australian Department of Health showed that an average of one-third of high school students in Australia will smoke vapes between 2022 and 2023.

As an vape manufacturer committed to compliance and safety, Veehoo vapes is deeply concerned about the surge in vape use among teenagers. We recognize the seriousness of this problem and call for increased regulation and education to protect young people from the potential risks of vapes.

It is reported that disposable high-concentration nicotine vape products have become extremely popular in Australia. The popularity of these products among young people is partly due to the fact that they are promoted as a different choice from traditional cigarettes. In addition, traditional cigarettes are expensive and have health warning images on them, while vapes do not have these. Young people may mistakenly believe that vapes are a safe and socially acceptable choice.

However, we must recognize that vapes are not without risks. Although vapes may be less harmful than traditional cigarettes, there is still a certain degree of health risk, especially for the development and health of adolescents. Nicotine can have a negative impact on the brain development of young people and may lead to long-term addiction.

Veehoo supports Australian laws that prohibit the sale of vapes in retail stores other than pharmacies. However, the “black market” sales mentioned in the report show that there are still teenagers who can easily obtain these products. Therefore, we call for further strengthening of supervision and cracking down on illegal sales channels to protect young people from the influence of unregulated vape products.

In addition to strengthening supervision, education is also a vital link. Veehoo advocates to improve young people’s awareness and understanding of vapes through public education. We are committed to providing consumers with accurate information, including the ingredients, potential risks and guidance on reasonable use of vapes.

In protecting young people from the potential harm of vapes, the government, industry and all sectors of society need to work together. Veehoo will continue to work with relevant parties to promote the compliance and safety of the vape industry, and work with educational institutions, parents and communities to jointly carry out youth health education activities.

By strengthening supervision, cracking down on illegal sales channels and improving public education, we can work together to reduce the attraction and use of vapes by young people and ensure their health and well-being. Veehoo will continue to provide consumers with compliant and safe vape products in a responsible manner and contribute to the sustainable development of the industry.
