According to a report by the New York Post on September 8th, e-cigarette detectors are set to soon be deployed in schools in New York City as lawmakers work to combat the issue of youth vaping. A bipartisan legislative proposal introduced last week by City Council member Joann Ariola would require the New York City Department of Education to install e-cigarette detectors in middle and high schools in all five boroughs.
Aliola said:
We simply hope that the school can continue to maintain a safe, nurturing environment, rather than it becoming a place where children are harming their lung health.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), e-cigarettes have become the most commonly used tobacco product among adolescents nationwide.
According to reports, it is currently unclear how much funding the city government will spend, but many school districts across the country have already purchased HALO sensors, each valued at $1000, which can detect chemicals in the air.
Currently, this new bill has received support from Democratic politicians including Brooklyn council members Justin Brannan and Jennifer Gutierrez.
