Australia Restricts Vape Sales To Pharmacies In 'World-Leading' Move To Cut Nicotine Use
SYDNEY RESIDENT, MIKE (LAST NAME WITHHELD), SAYING:
"Government needs to do more, absolutely. I mean at this stage they don't really know the ongoing health risks of vaping, the long term health risks and you know, they don't seem to be too worried about it but ultimately that's just going to hit Medicare, it's going to hit our health system."
SYDNEY RESIDENT, JENNIFER ANDREWS, SAYING:
"I don't know anyone who smokes vapes or uses vapes but generally vapes, from what I understand, are totally unregulated in terms of their content. So given where we have got to with cigarettes, I actually think we shouldn't be selling vapes at all until we've worked out what's in them and that's regulated."
SYDNEY RESIDENT, SARAH HARRIS, SAYING:
"I think it doesn't really make that much sense I guess, especially if they're going to be changing it again in October and I think it's just going to make people go for black market vapes or try to get vapes through their friends or online, or whatever the other routes of purchasing them are."
SYDNEY RESIDENT, SARAH HARRIS, SAYING:
"I gave up just because you don't know what's in them, I was only really doing it socially when I was going out with friends and it just didn't really make any sense, I didn't want to be poisoning myself, I was always worried about potentially getting cancer down the line so I just wanted to quit for my overall health."
