Juul’s vaping products should be completely pulled

Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said Monday that juul Labs’ products should be removed from the market, citing two studies that showed the scope of teen use of its e-cigarettes and flavored pods.

“It’s very clear that juul can’t keep their products out of the hands of kids,” said Gottlieb, a physician, health advocate and board member. He left the Food and Drug Administration]in April. “What’s driving the youth use is primarily juul.”

“You’ve hooked a lot of kids”

The studies published last week in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that Juul dominates the e-cigarette market among teens, with its mint pods being the most popular flavor. The studies also highlighted that 27.5% of high school students and 10.5% of eighth graders said they currently use e-cigarettes. More than half of both groups said they used Juul as their e-cigarette of choice.

Juul does seem to “have cleaned up what they’re doing” in terms of marketing to young people, “but it’s hard to unring that bell.”

Referring to teen vaping as an “epidemic,” Gottlieb has called for a “federal reckoning” to address the problem.

Scott, Scott, Scott, Scott, Scott...nicotine is less harmful than caffeine and you are not concerned about that substance...are you?
Stop pandering to the folks that make political contributions, studies show this "epidemic" to be a middle class/upper class problem ONLY.
Perhaps those parents should focus a bit more on accepting responsibility and less on assigning blame for their parental failures.

Good day sir!
I said GOOD DAY!

Cheers
