The public demanded that the vape market be regulated
As a smoker who has been using traditional cigarettes for a long time, I do not like to smoke and vapes. I always feel that they cannot meet the demand. Of course, others like to smoke and smoke, which is their freedom. I have no opinion on the government's regulation of selling vapes. What is puzzling is that the medical profession has been asking the government to ban the heating of cigarettes and electronic cigarettes in Hong Kong. Recently, six medical students have asked the government to ban smoking and electronic cigarettes, and they are required to legally buy cigarettes. Age, from 18 to 21 years old.
It is strange to say that the six unnamed students held a press conference, which led to such multimedia reports, and more than the current press conferences held by the student unions. You said that no high person is pointing behind the scenes, it is really hard to believe. Speaking of emotions, the current discussion about heating smoke, electronic cigarettes, and even traditional cigarettes has become a moral high ground. Smoking has become a sin. The will and freedom of smokers can be ignored by society.
On the other hand, the earlier press conference in the medical profession even more implies that political parties collect sponsors from tobacco companies and accept their lobbying, which has led some political parties to change their attitudes. As everyone knows, there is a doctor who is extremely anti-smoking in a political party. Even if he adds more money to lobby, it is impossible for them to change their position. The medical scholar really did have a political experience, and with a few words, he could turn this issue into the agenda setting they wanted.
What people don't understand is that when doctors claim that heating cigarettes and vapes are harmful to health, they should be monitored and attacked on public health grounds, even if they are prohibited by legislation or banned. However, when they talk about traditional cigarettes, they can't deal directly with them, but just let everyone continue to be patient, and don't mention the total ban. Is this not hypocrisy? Is it not a double standard?
When it comes to smoking, it is harmful to health. In fact, drinking more alcohol will increase the rate of cirrhosis and heart attack. Drinking alcohol also has the opportunity to cause alcoholism. It also has the opportunity to cause trouble after drinking and disrupting social order and tranquility. Why don't you see the doctors propose a total ban on alcohol? Why have they never seen them ask the government to increase alcohol tax? Is it true that the medical practitioners themselves have the habit of drinking, so they dare not say anything? It is the sorrow of society that such a double standard of off-the-shelf logic is actually followed by political parties.
It is not rumored that the current public opinion is full of allegations of hypocrisy and double standards in the issue of ban on the sale of electronic cigarettes and the addition of tobacco taxes. Therefore, the debate on supporting rational policies has been abducted by these hypocritical statements, and the choice of smokers has been ignored. It can be said that the reasonable regulation of heating and electronic cigarettes is the Premium choice. While protecting the choice of smokers, the other side can absorb the opinions of anti-smokers.
