U.S. teens are turning to vaping in record numbers, with rates climbing dramatically since 2017.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse has released its 2019 Monitoring the Future survey of eighth, 10th and 12th graders across the country, and the results indicate an alarming increase across all three age groups.
NIDA Director Nora Volkow looks to past successes with anti-tobacco campaigns as a model for how to tackle the challenge of runaway vaping rates among U.S. adolescents.
Vaping has become very glamorized for them because these are quite cool-looking devices on the one hand, and other kids are using it, so it has become a fashionable item.
What are other health risks associated with vaping beyond addiction? Are there immediate or short-term health consequences for these children?
There are a couple of reports about these inflammatory responses that can be very serious and that are associated with vaping.
If you are not with other teenagers who are taking drugs, you will be less likely to be exposed to drugs.
