Recent school health promotion studies have found that as many as 43% of 10th-12th grade students and 67% of vocational school students have used tobacco products at least once during the year 2021.

Not surprisingly, researchers found that the most common way to expose children to tobacco products was through friends, with at least one-third of youth obtaining these products through social media.
