3 times more likely
According to stats released, kids who vape are 3 times more likely to smoke later on. Only this generation could turn preventive into gateway.
Also 20% of kids in another study admit or have been found to upload naked pictures of themselves after being coerced .
While its not indicated whether or not they were enforceable coerced, it again somewhat makes a mockery of the child safety act.
I'm starting to think that this is turning out just like the war on drugs ended up.

University of York and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

56 reviews on 384 studies (global).

UPDATE

After a search i still cant find the study that the BBC referred to regarding the uploading of naked photos study. I doubt its not genuine but none the less am unable at this time to support the claim.

This kind of data can say anything anyone with an agenda wants it to. I could do a survey of prison guards and say 99% of people in prisons aren't criminals.

Vaping is disgusting. I smoke occasionally but I wouldn’t touch vape with a 10 foot pole

And what made you think vaping was a preventative, healthier alternative? Very naive on your part.

These kinds of studies are done for politicians who want vaping banned because they personally don't like it and want even stricter controls and measures online.

Politicians aside tho, we all know vaping and smoking is trash. Let’s not pretend there’s nothing wrong with it.

Sure, but so is dictating lifestyles and personal choices. I feel like for every proposal or legislation that takes away personal autonomy, freedoms, rights or enforces lifestyle choices, one politician must give their life in exchange. For instance those annoying bottle caps that you have to twist and snap. A politician should have to die to pass those into law. And other similar things.

Everything aside though, we all know this world is ♥♥♥♥♥♥. PFAS and microplastics, son.

"Research indicates that adults may inhale roughly 71,000 microplastic particles per day, with 68,000 of those being smaller than 10 micrometers."

So instead of huffing the air we breathe and get poisoned that way, I prefer my pollution to be bespoke, thank you very much.

So why don't you go worry about your health, and become 130 while climate change is raging.

I read that sitting in congested traffic for one hour is the equivalent of smoking 20 cigarettes.

Jeez, you got a little too offended, there. If you’re that insecure about your habit, then maybe you should quit, instead of getting so touchy trying to justify it.

So you’re going to willingly poison your body. That’s very logical.
