Sometimes I have to say that it is really a lot of people! In order to limit the purchase of minors, the US Vape giant Juul took a series of actions, making strategic changes from advertising, channels, tastes, purchase verification, etc., but still targeted!According to CNBC, the Attorney General of North Carolina recently sued Juul Labs, accusing the company of deliberately promoting its products to minors and concealing the effectiveness and danger of nicotine in its products.
North Carolina, the first state in the United States to take legal action against Juul! It is understood that North Carolina is also a traditional tobacco production state.
Supreme law enforcement official Josh Stein said in his lawsuit that he was the first state attorney general to bring Juul to court. The Massachusetts Attorney General also announced last year an investigation into Juul's sales and marketing.
Josh Stein said in a statement: "Juul attracts young customers, causing steam smoke to become a minor epidemic. Juul's business practices are not only reckless, but also illegal. I can't sit back and ignore the new generation. Young people are addicted to nicotine."
The state stated in its indictment that Juul “dilted” the danger of nicotine in its possession of cigarettes. Juul smokers are generally strong and addictive, and are almost allowed in many countries for sale to all age groups. 3 times the concentration.
Josh Stein added that the company is asking social media to promote its products on social media. The lawsuit also alleges that the age-authentication method of its online shopping site is inadvertent, allowing young consumers to purchase their products.
Juul said in a statement that he has not seen the indictment and agreed with Josh Stein's concern about the use of Vape by young people. "We have been working with the government to take the most radical action to combat the use of Vape by young people."
Josh Stein asked the court to force the company to stop selling Vape to minors in North Carolina, limit the amount of cigarettes sold in the state, stop advertising ads for young consumers, and remove any under 18 years old. All customer data for underage consumers.
US judges demand FDA to speed up review of Vape: According to the Associated Press, the US federal judge ordered the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) to review thousands of electronic cigarettes on the US market.
The court held that the FDA had not managed Vape and did not fulfill its legal obligations. Few studies have focused on the long-term health effects of Vape and are not sure whether it will help with smoking cessation.
Organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics believe that the lack of FDA regulation has led to the proliferation of Vape among adolescents, and the indulging of nicotine threatens the health of a generation.
