One in seven young people claim to vape regularly, according to the Director of Public Health at Liverpool City Council
A “vaping community” is emerging among young people in Liverpool with the product's “tempting flavours” being criticised by the city’s Director of Public Health.
Prof Ashton added: “In young people, more than four in five who have tried vaping have friends who vape. So there is a vaping community amongst young people as well. They said the process would involve visiting as many as 20-25 shops a day and offering vape liquids and vapes to be displayed in the shop. The former employee said they would often be positioned in the most visible parts of the shop and be placed next to sweets and snacks.
Prof Ashton points out that people should be free to make up their own minds on the practice. He advocates its use as a means of giving up smoking in adults, but said there is no reason for people who do not smoke tobacco to take up vaping. "It feels to me, and I think most people would agree, that they are actually marketed towards a younger demographic. That is why I want greater and tighter regulation on marketing of these products.”
