According to recent reports from Dutch news, doctors in the Netherlands have issued a warning about a new type of e-cigarette. This e-cigarette combines the functions of a phone, music player, and allows users to play games like Snake.
Pediatric pulmonologist Dr. Sophie Cohen stated that this is an extremely distorted product.
I am not surprised that the industry has developed products that make children more addicted, as this is their profit model. The younger the brain, the higher the susceptibility to addiction.
Although the Netherlands has banned fruit or sweet-flavored e-cigarette liquid since January 1st, these e-liquids are still widely available on the market.
According to the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA), they have noticed these "smart e-cigarettes" and speculate that children may have obtained them from abroad or through other means. However, some young users claim that they can purchase them through social media platforms like Snapchat and TikTok, and also from behind the counter at some stores in the Netherlands.
Vincent Karremans, State Secretary of Youth, Prevention, and Sports, has stated that the tobacco industry's efforts to attract young people are "shameful." He is currently developing a plan to combat the illegal trading of e-cigarettes.
