What Vape Shops Have to Say About New York's Flavored E-Cigarette Ban | NBC New York

After New York banned all flavored vaping products from being sold, those who run vape shops across the state say they will challenge the new bill that threatens their livelihood. NBC New York’s Adam Kuperstein reports. More: New York became the first state to ban the sale of flavored e-cigarettes Tuesday, a move that comes as federal health officials investigate a mysterious surge of severe breathing illnesses linked to vaping. The vote by the state Public Health and Health Planning Council means the ban, which covers all flavored cigarettes and other vaping products except for menthol and tobacco flavors, goes into effect immediately. Retailers will have two weeks to remove merchandise from store shelves. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, had proposed the emergency ban Sunday , citing surging use among young people. According to data from the state health department, nearly 40% of high school seniors and 27% of high school students overall in the state use e-cigarettes. Use among high-school students went from 10.5% in 2014 to 27.4% in 2018.
