Shane, correct me if I'm wrong. You can still go into a store and buy a packet of "Cancer Sticks" cigarettes there?. Yet, they are banning Vaping, a far less harmful way of ingesting nicotine with no pathogens and all the harmful stuff that causes the health problems associated with cigs.

Over here in the US, I can go and buy for a 7,000 puff, prefilled vaping device for around $25.00 which will last around two weeks, it only having 8 milligrams of nicotine.

Aside from a few rouge, unregulated vaping concoctions early on where their was some reactions, no one has died as a result of vaping, yet cigs have killed millions.

Such shortsightedness

    Yea we can still buys cigarettes here over the counter even though they are behind the counter and have warm and touching remarks like, "this product can kill you" usually with an equally positive image.


    Are e-cigarettes legal? From 1 October 2021, Australians will need a prescription to legally access nicotine containing eâ€'cigarette products for any purpose. This includes importing these products from overseas.
    Apparently illegal for some time, e-sigs and Vaping have a bad rap here since young children are sniffing up Mouse hair spray and others and dying or almost dying, usually because some other idiot put his dice with death on YouTube.

      My understanding is that it is now banned completely. Not even medical exceptions.

    Good News Vaping is an unhealthy practice.

      Aside from a few rouge, unregulated concoctions early on in it's development that have harmed some people, no one has died from vaping. As for cigarettes, it's killed millions upon millions. Yet, there it remains in Australia, openly on sale.

      Double standards so the government can collect taxes on it.
