As the US vaping market continues to evolve, policymakers face the tricky challenge of safeguarding the potential for positive public health outcomes from e-cigarettes, which offer a lower-risk alternative to traditional cigarettes, while ensuring reasonable protections against youth use. In the latter half of 2019, public health officials rushed to issue broad warnings against e-cigarettes in response to a surge in vaping-related hospitalizations and deaths that grabbed national headlines. The broad warnings proved to be unfounded, as the hospitalizations and deaths were determined to be unrelated to anything found in typical e-cigarettes. eliminating flavored e-cigarette products, outright e-cigarette bans, or another popular local policy, e-cigarette taxes, have a major downside: more cigarette smoking. Because e-cigarettes are a less harmful alternative to cigarettes, public health advocates and officials must appreciate the impact of e-cigarette restrictions on smokers.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ARTICLE LINK:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearhealth.com\/articles\/2020\/02\/18\/efforts_to_combat_e-cigarette_misuse_could_backfire_110991.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Efforts to Combat E-Cigarette Misuse Could Backfire<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/dot.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Reddit\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"VAPING%20NEWS%3A%20CONSEQUENCES%20OF%20RUSHED%20BAN%20LEGISLATION\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Recent news about e-cigarette misuse has fueled both public misperception and policy responses that are likely to have unintended consequences.
