Un articolo pubblicato sulla rivista 'Carcinogenesis' analizza i potenziali danni dello svapo e sottolinea l'aumento dell'uso di sigarette elettroniche e prodotti a tabacco riscaldato, con una campagna in corso che mira a raccogliere 50.000 firme per aumentare il prezzo di tutti i prodotti da fumo e ridurre il numero di fumatori, in particolare tra i giovani. #TobaccoControl #PublicHealth #YouthSmoking
