Growing calls to support young people quitting vapes

  • 5 months ago
Vapes -- or e-cigarettes -- will be banned in Australia in just a couple of weeks. From January - single-use vapes will be outlawed and the refillable, non-therapeutic ones will be banned from march next year. But with one-in-six young people between 15 and 17 using vapes, youth workers are concerned about the withdrawal effects the outright ban may have on teenagers addicted to vaping. Zena Burgess from the Australian Psychological Society wants to see support for those giving up.
