Jaitsiera nabarmen honek bapeatzeari buruzko eztabaidan ikuspegi orekatu baten beharra adierazten du. Gazteen bapeatzea saihestea ezinbestekoa den arren, datu hauek azpimarratzen dute arreta alarma gehiegizkotik irtenbide praktiko eta ebidentzian oinarritutakoetara aldatzeko beharra.

Michael Landl, Director of the World Vapers’ Alliance (WVA), commented on the findings: “The data from the CDC demonstrates that the exaggerated panic about teen vaping needs to stop. We must continue our efforts to discourage youth from vaping, but it’s crucial to ensure that our strategies don’t deprive adult smokers of a potentially life-saving alternative.

“The call now is for policymakers to develop strategies rooted in research and facts. Instead of succumbing to a moral panic, it’s necessary to address the dual challenge: keeping vaping products out of the hands of the youth while ensuring that adults have access to safer nicotine alternatives”.
