Doctors have raised the alarm about high levels of vaping among children worldwide, saying they are convinced e-cigarettes are causing irreversible harm to their health.
Cardiologists, researchers and health experts said they were “extremely concerned” about the harmful effects of e-cigarettes on millions of teenagers and young people, including exposure to toxins and carcinogens – some of which are still unknown.
Nicotine levels in e-cigarettes can be very high, raising the risk of addiction and injury to the developing brains of adolescents. Children are also risking long-term cardiovascular effects as a result of vaping at school and college, experts say.
Speaking at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) annual congress in Madrid, the world’s largest heart conference, Prof Maja-Lisa Løchen, a senior cardiologist at the University hospital of North Norway, said she was concerned that millions of children could face ill health in future.

Stop vaping. Cold turkey.
Vaping (nicotine products) is harmful to children. Even if you pretend like there are no other health effects, it is a chemically addictive substance and will have at minimum potentially significant financial harm to a child as they advance through life until they break the addiction (if ever).
Once someone’s mature enough to be responsible for their own decisions, I don’t really care what they do. Until then, I’m not really sure there’s any reason to advocate for an unnecessary additional addiction beyond the already prevalent caffeine and sugar addictions developed during youth.

Did a new copy pasta just drop??
Damn, I kinda want to see the new copy pasta, but am too late.
Edit: Checked moderation history, 2/10, way less entertaining than I thought it would be. Not worth the effort.
Yea, comment was pretty unhinged, maybe with some revision it could have been a good one. Just trying to keep it light.
