Esloveniako Osasun Ministerioa proposatu to introduce a ban on all vaping flavourings except tobacco “to prevent and reduce the use of electronic cigarettes among young people”. According to the Slovenian authorities “more and more research also shows that, among adolescents who otherwise do not smoke, the use of an electronic cigarette significantly increases the likelihood that they will also start smoking regular cigarettes”.

But that is not true! Flavours are adin-talde guztietako lurrungailu arrunten artean erabilia and they are not a product to adolescents started in vaping. Around two thirds of adult vapers use flavours eta ezinbestekoak dira uzten saiatzen diren heldu erretzaileentzat, ahal baitute handitu irteteko probabilitatea 230%. Gainera, ez dago ebidentziarik lurruntze-zaporeek gazteen artean lurruntzea edo erretzea pizten dutenik adierazten duenik. 

Zaporeen debekua osasun publikoko hondamendia da. Ikerketa suggests that almost half of vapers would turn to the black market or back to cigarettes. A flavour ban in Slovenia will leave consumers with a selection of just three equally dreadful options: returning to smoking, the black market or buying their flavours abroad. 

For too long, lawmakers have ignored vapers’ opinions, meaning the most important voices – those of the consumer – and their lived experiences are missing and misunderstood.
