The state is not the one to tell Argentines how to consume nicotine and should respect the decisions of individuals who choose to vape in order to consume it in a less harmful way. Moreover, all the arguments on which the ban was based have been disproved.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Every year 225,000 Argentines fall ill and almost 60,000 Argentines die from smoking-related diseases.
