Vaping, which refers to the use of e-cigarettes, is slowly becoming popular in South Africa. Initially marketed as an alternative for people who wanted to quit smoking cigarettes, it now appears to be growing into a socially-acceptable practice.

Patricia das Neves from Mahikeng in the North West says she started vaping in 2017. This after some of her clients, who also quit smoking cigarettes, told her about the benefits of vaping. Das Neves says vaping helped her to quit smoking cigarettes.

But Professor Michael Herbst, who is with the Cancer Association of South Africa , has a different view. He has warned people to stay clear off e-cigarettes. Another smoking practice that appears to be popular is hookah, also known as “hub,” “shisha” or “Hubbly Bubbly.” This method uses ingredients such as flavoured tobacco, water, coal, and foil. Itumeleng Sothomela, who has been a user for over five years, says it helps him to stay away from cigarettes.Paediatric Pulmonologist Dr. Aneesa Venker says although, there is awareness in South Africa, more still needs to be done to make people aware of the dangers of vaping and smoking Hookah.

Asked about the intervention of the Health Department on vaping and smoking Hookah, provincial spokesperson Tebogo Lekgethwane referred to the Control of Tobacco Products and Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems Bill.
