The UK's National Health Service (NHS) has stated that e-cigarettes are "far less harmful than cigarettes" and recommended them as a means of reducing cigarette usage.
Johns Hopkins University has stated that electronic cigarettes may be just as bad, if not worse. Both traditional cigarettes and e-cigarettes contain dangerous and addictive toxins, primarily nicotine.
Furthermore, many users of electronic cigarettes are obtaining a higher level of nicotine than from combustible tobacco products. It is noted that users can purchase ultra-strong pods with higher nicotine concentrations or increase the voltage of their electronic cigarettes for a harder hit.
In the United States, electronic cigarettes are becoming a growing issue for children and young people. According to the annual Youth Smoking and Health Action Survey by YouGov, the usage of e-cigarettes among children aged 11 to 17 has risen from 4% in 2020 to 7% in 2022.
Their data also shows that disposable e-cigarettes are now the most widely used product among current e-cigarette users, growing from 7% in 2020 and 8% in 2021 to 52% in 2022, an increase of more than 7 times.
The video was first shared on the platform on Monday and has since been viewed over 562,800 times and received more than 51,000 likes.
