The government of the United Kingdom has banned disposable vapes as the number of children addicted to such types of tobacco has been increasing for three years.
Statistics cited by authorities indicate the number of children using vapes has tripled over the past three years.
Figures suggested that 7.6 percent of 11 to 17-year-olds use vaping regularly, the number exceeded 4.1 per cent in 2020.
Vaping products saw growth in value sales in Britain of 897.4 million pounds ($1.15 billion) in 2023, according to the data published by market researcher NIQ and The Grocer.
The surge in growth forced the government to take measures against the flavored and other tobaccos.
Britain’s government in October proposed banning younger generations from ever buying cigarettes and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said it also needed to act on youth vaping. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak noted that single-use vape driven an increase in the youth.
