NewsTranscript
00:00 The Department of Health has reported that the death of a person in the country is a common occurrence
00:04 because of the use of vaping.
00:06 That's why DOH wants to amend the Vape Law,
00:10 especially those who are being deceived by vaping at a young age.
00:14 Mark Salazar has the report.
00:16 Some people switched to vaping
00:21 because they thought it's better for your health.
00:24 But the Department of Health or DOH said,
00:27 "Don't be fooled."
00:29 Now World No Tobacco Day,
00:31 they launched a campaign against the dangers of tobacco and vape.
00:35 At the same time, DOH said that
00:49 the first case of death in the country was recorded
00:53 because of vaping.
00:55 A 22-year-old man who was vaping for two years before being attacked by a year.
01:00 He has no risk factors,
01:02 except that he was vaping every day for the past two years.
01:07 We saw two vessels blocked, Dr. Limpina.
01:10 Two arteries in his heart were blocked.
01:14 His lungs have a consolidation.
01:17 It means that his lungs are tightly sealed
01:20 even though there are no microbes that usually cause infection.
01:24 By the way, he didn't smoke before.
01:27 He is now the face of their campaign
01:30 to explain to young people
01:32 that it's not cool and safe to vape or e-cigarette.
01:36 When the chemicals in the vape enter,
01:39 the surroundings of these arteries harden.
01:43 Now, they are hardened and blocked.
01:45 The blood did not reach the heart.
01:48 It's okay if your heart hurts when you vape,
01:51 but don't hurt it when you use vape.
01:54 But some of our conversations who are vaping
01:57 seem to be not getting any better.
01:59 Maybe he's doing something else
02:01 other than vaping.
02:03 Did they check the family history?
02:05 So, the patient's family history is probably considered, right?
02:09 Health experts admitted that
02:11 the marketing of vape companies online
02:14 is at risk against their health campaign.
02:17 The law is also very soft
02:19 in regulating vape and e-cigarette.
02:22 According to the Global Youth Tobacco Survey,
02:24 one in every seven ages,
02:26 thirteen to fifteen in the Philippines,
02:28 is already vaping or e-cigarette.
02:31 Something that the authorities are warning.
02:34 To help the campaign,
02:36 DOH wants to amend the vape law.
02:39 At 21 years old,
02:41 instead of 18,
02:42 they will allow vape and e-cigarette.
02:44 Only the fruity flavors are prohibited
02:48 and the online selling of these is restricted.
