“The Trump Administration is making it clear that we intend to clear the market of flavored e-cigarettes to reverse the deeply concerning epidemic of youth e-cigarette use that is impacting children, families, schools and communities,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. “We will not stand idly by as these products become an on-ramp to combustible cigarettes or nicotine addiction for a generation of youth.
“We appreciate President Trump and Secretary Azar’s continued support of the agency’s efforts to prevent youth use of e-cigarettes, including the bold approach we’re announcing today. Once finalized, this compliance policy will serve as a powerful tool that the FDA can use to combat the troubling trend of youth e-cigarette use. We must act swiftly against flavored e-cigarette products that are especially attractive to children.
The Trump Administration has demonstrated a deep commitment to preventing youth from using all tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, and the finalization of the compliance policy will be an important step in ongoing work to ensure e-cigarettes are not marketed to, sold to, or used by kids.for marketing and sales practices that have led to increased youth accessibility and appeal of e-cigarettes.
US_FDA Youre making a HUGE mistake!! Virtually no adults use not will use tobacco flavored products theyre worse than cigarettes all ur doin is forcing millions n millions of ADULTS to switch back to cigarettes which is proven to be vastly more dangerous to your health, choose different
US_FDA Banning flavored e-liquids is a completely bogus approach to this issue. Why are other parts of the world such as England not having similar illnesses? As an adult, I don't need the government telling me what flavors I can have. wtf
US_FDA ?NON-TOBACCO e-cig products? That's the addictive|dangerous property [really nicotine induced]; which is & should be regulated by FDA Admin. regardless...unless toxic, flavored vaporizers are just that. They don't look so cool, but how is that directly/indirectly causing deaths?
US_FDA So we're going to start talking about a ban e-cigs and flavored juice but still no ban on ACTUAL cigarettes? Give me a break.
US_FDA Legalize marijuana
US_FDA MORE CHILDREN ARE BEING KILLED BY ASSAULT WEAPONS AND YOU BAN VAPING? No one sees the irony in that . . . NO!
US_FDA Can we expect the same move for alcohol products? 4300 teenagers die on average per year due to alcohol, but:
DrHowardLiu US_FDA This is INCREDIBLY dumb and short-sighted. I can’t even come up with an adequate analogy. People are getting sick off bootleg and cheap vape products in convenience stores and off the street. Not from legit vaping products from actual vape stores.
US_FDA This is disgusting. You are lying to the American people. You know all the cases in the news were teenagers vaping illegal THC cartridges bought from a drug dealer. This is despicable. Those cases had nothing to do with adults vaping legitimate ejuice.
FDATobacco US_FDA vapingsaveslives Holding back the truth for your real agenda doesn’t
US_FDA
US_FDA Hell yeah, time to stock up on minty mango...
US_FDA Oh fun! Now do guns!
US_FDA A very practical initiative to control e.cigarettes

DrLindaDykes US_FDA Great! Guns next, right?
FDATobacco US_FDA what a load of horse shit! your legalizing dope smoking and not talking about cigs, it ain't about vapes it's about big tobbaco and big pharma loosing market share!!
US_FDA Gawd this is sooo stooopid
US_FDA pitty people misuse guns and kill others, they haven't banned them, people misuse cars and kill others and themself they haven't banned them, when people misuse a product that kills just themself wait we have to ban it
US_FDA
US_FDA Pop quiz? What kills 1,300 people a day and is still legal? Cigarettes. So, why are we banning vaping?
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Why?! I don’t understand?! If kids are vaping - yell at their parents. We’re a free people. CC: KatTimpf
US_FDA Why are you holding everyday Americans responsible for incompetent parents? This is nanny state fascism.
US_FDA This total crap.
US_FDA Good! Now how about the government clear the market of guns? Oh right, guns don't kill, people kill.
FDATobacco US_FDA Unauthorized....most are authorized and backed by big tobacco....educated people have known this ever since they were introduced😉
pvtjokerus US_FDA 5 of the deaths were THC related vapes- one was an e-cig by an over 50 already respiratory compromised individual- not sure how this will solve anything 🤔🤷♀️
US_FDA A knee jerk reaction that will not stop the illnesses, but will only exacerbate the problem, because all flavors will come from the street, with no guarantee that it’s safe. Investigate, find out exactly what is making people sick, then deal with that!
pvtjokerus US_FDA Ok. I hate seeing someone vape and kids shouldn’t do it... BUT.... you can’t unring the bell. All you’re doing is creating a black market. This is so stupid. 🤦🏻♂️
US_FDA Because that is the most pressing current danger to Americans ......
US_FDA Can we please have more info on 2020 enrollment dates for Obamacare?
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Nanny state.
US_FDA If YOU choose to vape knowing hazards, then it's your choice. I see this health scare no different than drinking Cokes knowing the link to obesity & diabetes. What happened to the GOP's 'less govt' stance? Yet big pharma killing folks & that's ok. SMH
US_FDA What about regular cigarettes that are PROVEN to kill? What about Alcohol? What about Opiods? I can tell you why you hit vaping, we don’t have deep pockets like big tobacco and big pharma!!
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Everyone should get on the whitehouse lawn and start puffing big clouds on September 19th as a practice for when these epic gamers go to area 51 the next day and deploy this tactic as cover
US_FDA
US_FDA Commence big tobacco + corrupt “govt officials” backslapping
US_FDA Sugar and caffeine addiction in the form of soda, flavored and marketed directly to children, connected to literally hundreds of millions of early deaths, from heart disease to diabetes to high blood pressure and kidney failure. And what about tobacco, a KNOWN carcinogen?
US_FDA These fuckin morons it’s not flavored vape that killing anyone it’s the THC black market vapes, besides someone sent out a bad batch cause vaping has been around for 7 years and no one died before this
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Bravo, but what are unauthorized products doing ON the market
US_FDA Somebody didn't pay y'all off or what?
US_FDA About time
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Thanks a lot. Vaping is how I'm quitting smoking. Perhaps some thing called 'parents' should do something about teen vaping - not nannies from the government.
ComfortablySmug US_FDA so cigarettes will be next, right?
ComfortablySmug US_FDA A moral panic that will result in more deaths because you idiots think you know better. Shame on you. Vaping saves lives
ComfortablySmug US_FDA That would require the CTP to write regs. Which they haven’t done in 10 years.
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Very bad policy and the result of increased tobacco use will be the proof in the pudding.
ComfortablySmug US_FDA So unauthorized, anything in the stores and already approved is okay?
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Hell yeah real cigs are where its at
ComfortablySmug US_FDA Dumb.
US_FDA Good! I almost switched to those killers!
US_FDA THANK YOU !
