India has banned vaping

Following a trend of growing scepticism around the safety of vaping devices, India has now banned electronic cigarettes.

The sweeping ban prohibits the manufacture, storage, import, export, transport, sale, and advertisement of all e-cigarette products.

Yes, definitely a move to a healthy lifestyle...

Have they banned normal cigarettes yet?

 

[NeonNinja]

Should ban witchcraft.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Should probably ban spitting and crapping on the street first...

 

[mercurial]

They have also banned morality.

 

[Rocket-Boy]

Lol so they ban something suspected of negative health effects but keep cigarettes with proven negative health effects.
Yeah that makes total sense.

 

[ShaunSA]

They should ban breeding like rabbits while they're at it

 

[RedViking]

So no more getting stoned?

I also love Trumps idea (and other states) to ban non-Tobacco flavoured liquids... Because of course to make it taste like tobacco is such a different process to make it taste like Lemon Creams...

I do not vape or smoke cigarettes but one is banned and the other still around?

 

[Sl8er]

Drugs...I mean...Cigare...uhm...vaping is baaad

 

[Kornhub]

And China bans plastics...

 

[MrGray]

All I can say is, well played, Big Tobacco, well played. Your co-ordinated disinformation campaign will keep people hooked on your cancer sticks.

 

[We Love Bass]

Shame..now people gonna have to find another way to look cool,

 

[KleinBoontjie]

And China bans plastics...

Aliexpress will close shortly after that ban. Like 95% of their stock is composed of plastics

I love how all the people are jumping up and down about vaping being safe.... its an exact repeat of 60's slogans such as "CAMELS – MORE DOCTORS SMOKE CAMELS" and that in 1958 only 44% of people believed smoking gave you cancer, citing it was healthy as proven by science.

20 years from now when all the horrible effects of vaping appear, history will once again laugh at us.

I love how people claim its a repeat of 60s slogans without any evidence.

Of course there could be some dangerous chemical in it that no-one knows about, but beyond that the current expected safety is based off the relative content of known dangerous chemicals in smoking and vaping. So really nothing like any alleged cover-up in the case of smoking tobacco.

This comes up in every thread...

Nobody says vaping is safe, just that it is safer than cigarettes.

They should ban Motorcycle overloading also, I don’t get why Indians go everywhere in packs, but it’s always funny seeing a family of 10 on a 125cc motorbike.
