Call for total ban on disposable e-cigarettes to tackle 'vaping epidemic'



Top doctors have called for legislation aimed at tackling youth vaping to include a total ban on disposable e-cigarettes and all flavours apart from tobacco.

The British Medical Association (BMA) has urged ministers to “take bold and brave actions” to protect the health of children and young people amid a “vaping epidemic”.

Former prime minister Rishi Sunak introduced the Tobacco and Vapes Bill earlier this year, which included plans to ban disposable e-cigarettes and introduce restrictions on flavours and packaging.
