The bill is being welcomed by activists as a step in the right direction toward embracing harm reduction strategies.<\/h5>\n<p>The Philippines enacted a bill on the 25th of July in a step toward promoting vaping and heated tobacco products as effective harm reduction strategies. The bill importantly focuses on imposing age restrictions on nicotine products for those under 18 years of age, ensuring that current adult smokers have access to these less harmful alternatives to cigarettes while combatting youth usage.<\/p>\n<p>Liza Katsiashvili, the community manager at the World Vapers\u2019 Alliance, said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/worldvapersalliance.com\/eu\/vapers-welcome-enactment-of-the-vape-bill-in-the-philippines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">press release<\/a>: <em>\u201cWhile most policymakers are misinformed and fight against vaping, the Philippines followed the right path to embrace vaping as an effective harm reduction innovation to save lives. Other countries should follow this example and endorse smart vaping policies to ensure improved public health for millions of consumers globally.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Every year, <a href=\"https:\/\/newsinfo.inquirer.net\/1635667\/vape-law-to-save-smokers-lives-including-young-adults-says-former-lawmaker#ixzz7aESSipK8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">smoking kills nearly 100,000 people in the Philippines<\/a>. This progressive bill seeks to embrace vaping as a safer nicotine alternative to smoking, and in the process, should help the country cut down on smoking-related illnesses, diseases, and hopefully, death.<\/p>\n<p>Anton Israel, founder of the Nicotine Consumption Union of the Philippines (NCUP), said: <em>\u201cVapers in the Philippines are celebrating a huge victory! We believe that the vape bill is a healthcare strategy that promotes a consumer choice and opportunity for smokers to enjoy safer alternatives to combustible tobacco. The decision of the government to encourage vaping instead of discouraging it will bring huge public health benefits for the country.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read the full text <a href=\"https:\/\/thevapourhut.com\/philippines-vape-bill\/\">here<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 25th July, 2022, the Philippines\u2019 \u201cVape Bill\u201d was enacted, aiming to regulate the import, sale, manufacture, distribution, and use of e-cigarette and heated tobacco products.
