Doctors have raised the alarm about high levels of vaping among children worldwide, saying they are convinced e-cigarettes are causing irreversible harm to their health.
Cardiologists, researchers and health experts said they were “extremely concerned” about the harmful effects of e-cigarettes on millions of teenagers and young people, including exposure to toxins and carcinogens – some of which are still unknown.
Nicotine levels in e-cigarettes can be very high, raising the risk of addiction and injury to the developing brains of adolescents. Children are also risking long-term cardiovascular effects as a result of vaping at school and college, experts say.
Speaking at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) annual congress in Madrid, the world’s largest heart conference, Prof Maja-Lisa Løchen, a senior cardiologist at the University hospital of North Norway, said she was concerned that millions of children could face ill health in future.

Imagine being so triggered by the existence of children that you completely forgot to say anything relevant to the article.
Regardless of what you think about people having kids, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being concerned for the well-being of people who haven’t even grown up yet.
Look, I’m as childfree and antinatalist as the next guy, but this is not beeing nice. Do I want them around me? No. But I know how to swear, and you’ve got variations on “fuck” in a single sentence.
Kids are terrible, but really? Gotta throw four fucks out there? It’s readily apparent that you do not give a fuck.
