Questions about banning flavored e-liquids
What is flavored e-liquid? That is, e-liquids other than tobacco flavors are called flavored e-liquids. Flavored e-liquids can be said to be a major feature of electronic cigarettes. It is the existence of flavored e-liquids that makes vapes popular. Cigarette's greatest weapon. What if flavored e-liquids were banned? I personally think that if flavored e-liquid is banned, it will be a disaster for the vape industry. Anyone who knows about vapes is that tobacco flavor has never been the first choice for vape users. Likely to lose most of the customers. Of course, there is a special user that may not be included in this list, that is, old smokers who want to use vapes to quit smoking. They are more loyal to the taste of tobacco, and even if there is no flavored e-liquid, it will not affect them much.
In 2021, the FDA rejected premarket tobacco applications (PMTAs) for 55,000 flavored products from three companies, and the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products announced that another 31 companies had issued MDOs for approximately 300,000 products, and products that received MDOs must be removed from the market immediately. Take it down, or the manufacturer could face additional enforcement action from the FDA.
Manufacturers of non-tobacco-flavored e-liquids must demonstrate product-specific scientific evidence of sufficient benefit for adult smokers to overcome the risks posed to teens, the FDA said.
Obviously, this is an impossible task, because it is a huge data system to prove that flavored e-liquid has sufficient benefits for smoking and can overcome the risks posed to teenagers. It not only requires a huge amount of information, but also it It also needs to stand the test of time. This is undoubtedly an impossible task for enterprises. Electronic cigarette and e-liquid enterprises not only do not involve such fields, but also have the strength and financial resources to complete this task. . Therefore, for a long time in the future, flavored e-liquid will be banned for a long time.
Unfortunately, China has also banned the sales of flavored e-liquids after 2022. As a base of vape manufacturers that accounts for 80% of the world, banning flavored e-liquids in China will have a huge negative impact on the global vape industry. influence. Although the current ban on flavored e-liquids has not yet officially arrived, its impact has already played a part. After March, many businesses actively stocked up on flavored e-liquids, hoping to sell more flavored e-liquids as much as possible before the ban came.
It can be said that the government department prohibits the sales of flavored e-liquids, which can be said to be cautious about the public health. It seems that there is no problem with the public interest as the starting point, but it is not reasonable for the government department to put this responsibility on the enterprise. It is necessary to know the production of the role of the enterprise, and the management responsibility lies with the regulatory department. It seems that the inspection of the safety of flavored e-liquids will be more reasonable and fairer, and it will be more fair and trustworthy to pass the responsibility to the impossible. The mission of the enterprise, it is obvious that it has ulterior motives.
