To better implement the previous regulations, the Mandatory National Standard for Electronic Cigarettes, implemented on October 1, 2022, further regulates the production and sale of electronic cigarettes.13 On October 28, Shanghai, following Shenzhen, Hangzhou, etc., integrated e-cigarettes into the scope of the smoking ban in public places.14 Lately, an excise tax on e-cigarettes was imposed on November 1, 2022, to reduce e-cigarette consumption through high taxes that affect sales prices.15 It is believed that with tightening regulations, the rate of e-cigarette users will gradually decrease, which will lower the electronic cigarette-related disease burden and greatly benefit public health
Plausibly, an even greater opportunity for tobacco harm reduction would be realized if e-cigarettes were permitted alongside HTPs
Thats because private insurers tend to follow the lead of Medicare and Medicaid, behemoths that cover about 2 in 5 Americans
Cigars are fragile
