With the deadline for PMTA submissions for synthetic nicotine products now closed, the U.S. vaping industry is again held hostage to FDA’s plodding regulatory review process and closed mind regarding the authorization of nicotine vapes.

FDA’s track record is dismal, issuing Marketing Denial Orders for millions of existing products and refusing to allow non-tobacco flavors. Is there any reason to believe the agency might approve synthetic nicotine products?

Joining us today to discuss the state of the U.S. vaping industry and ongoing efforts to work with the FDA is Tony Abboud, Executive Director of the Vapor Technology Association.

“The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to end the sale of nontobacco-flavored tobacco products—including flavored e-cigarettes, menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars. The legislation will now move to Mayor Eric Garcetti, who is expected to sign it. If passed, the ban would go into effect in January 2023. The ordinance also applies to zero-nicotine vapor products, but it does not, however, apply to hookah.”

An INCREDIBLE night for Innokin at the Vapouround Awards 2022!

Best Sustainable Initiative Winner: Aquios Bar – The first and only water-based vape made to be recycled.

Best MTL Tank 2nd Place: Zenith II – The tank that changed the MTL scene, compatible with all Z-Coils.

Best DTL Tank 3rd Place: Z-Force – The tank that introduced DuoPrime coils, for unmatched wicking speed, e-liquid saturation and flavour production.

Vaping technology has the power to create positive change in the lives of millions of smokers across the world. In the UK, smoking prevalence is estimated at 78% amongst homeless adults, compared to 13.8% in the general population.

With this in mind, Innokin & Vape Dinner Lady are partnering to donate two hundred MVP Pod kits and four hundred bottles of e-liquid to Simon Community Scotland, a homelessness community outreach charity based in Glasgow and Edinburgh. We hope this first donation can be the start of a long-term project that reaches vulnerable smokers across the UK.

Simon Community Scotland works to combat the causes and effects of homelessness. A range of services and initiatives are offered across Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Central Scotland. Street outreach teams work within these communities to provide accommodation and housing support to people who are sleeping rough or are at risk of becoming homeless and have been doing so for over fifty years.

Two hundred MVP Pod kits and four hundred bottles of e-liquid will be distributed by Simon Scotland to smokers who otherwise would not have access to vaping products or would not have the necessary support network to start a transition from combustible tobacco. We aim to gather feedback from the initial donation, which will help gain an understanding of the specific challenges of the initiative and make further donations in the future.

As a leading global manufacturer of vaping devices and e-liquids, we now feel it’s time to take action on smoking, especially in vulnerable communities. We are extremely grateful to Dinner Lady for their fantastic support of the initiative.

George Xia, Innokin Co-founder said: “Innokin’s mission has always been to help people improve their lives and offer less harmful alternatives to adult smokers. Many smokers in the UK don’t know how or can’t afford to switch from smoking to vaping. Partnering with Vape Dinner Lady and a charity like Simon Scotland gives us the opportunity to make a real positive impact.”

Commenting on the donation, John Taylor, Dinner Lady Chief Marketing Officer said: “This is our first collaboration with Innokin and we are delighted to be supporting Simon Community Scotland in this way.

In the UK more than two thirds of homeless adults smoke and lack the necessary support network to switch. Together with Innokin, Dinner Lady can help by providing the very best vaping products the market can offer”.

Our partnership with Dinner Lady and Simon Scotland aims to reduce the overall consumption of cigarettes throughout the homeless community in Scotland, with a view to reaching more smokers and regions in the future.

Want to help? You can make life better for people suffering from homelessness in Scotland. Donate to Simon Scotland today.

From Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch

With the comment period now closed for the legislative review of Canada’s Tobacco and Vaping Products Act, Canadian vapers again find themselves in “wait-and-see mode.”

It’s hard to believe, but this month is the fourth anniversary of nicotine vaping products becoming legal in Canada. It’s been a brutal four years, and much of the blame lies at the feet of Canada’s health regulator.
Joining us today to discuss Health Canada’s wrong turn on vaping is Martin Cullip, International Fellow at the Taxpayers Protection Alliance and prolific writer on harm reduction policy issues for major publications such as InsideSources, Center Square, Townhall, and Filter.

Is Health Canada doing harm? Find out.
