I fear that it might take a little more than banning vapes to make the country healthier.

Phase out cigarettes, phase out vapes. We have to do something. Although I agree more is needed. No doubt education from an early age.

Yes, get rid of ciggies first, I know a lot if people have found vapes helpful for stopping smoking.

Ban single-use vapes, get rid of all the fancy flavours and then possibly look at offering vapes by prescription.

Whilst you're at it, phase out alcohol and provide education from a young age that is one of the most destructive drugs.

They'll have to make the rest of life far more enjoyable before removing alcohol. And even then.
