Here in the states the e-cig is a new addiction.  The best thing we could have done here was to make them only available by prescription as that was the original use, to get guys off of regular cigarets.  Now even young teens have access and are getting hooked, it's just another way for big tobacco to turn a profit off of slowly killing people.

Just to set the record straight, the UK has completely different results than the US - because their approach is different.

Some young teens also have access to alcohol, illicit drugs and guns. Scaremongering and ill-informed comments don't help.

Cigarettes result in over 400K people in the US dying every fucking year. Vapes don't.
