Vaping: France plans to ban disposable e
French Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne announced on Sunday that she would soon ban disposable vapes. Vaping is "not nicotine, but a reflex and a gesture that young people get used to," says Borne. Every year, 75,000 people die as a result of tobacco consumption in France, Borne said. In Germany, too, critics fear that the colorful disposable e-cigarettes with their sweet flavors could tip a lot of teenagers, especially since some are visually modeled on real cigarettes.
