Tokyo Olympic Games venues must also ban electronic cigarettes
Recently, electronic yokes have been included in the smoking ban. It seems that in the future, the control of vapes into the anti-smoking regulations is already a trend. Therefore, users who use vapes in non-smoking areas need to pay attention, otherwise you There may be serious penalties.
The Organizing Committee of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games announced on the 28th that during the 2020 Olympic Games, smoking was not allowed in any venue, including heating of tobacco products and electronic cigarettes.
As the amendment to Japan's Health Promotion Law will be promulgated in April next year, Tokyo will also impose a stricter smoking ban, and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics will be banned indoors and outdoors and in the safety of venues.
The organizing committee said that these measures were taken to “protect the health and safety of athletes, spectators and officials” and “to leave the country with a reputation for improving public health”.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly has passed a stricter smoking ban than national legislation. According to the regulations, all restaurants and bars in Tokyo are not allowed to smoke regardless of the number of employees.
However, the city allows for tobacco advertising in the mass media. Cigarette packaging does not have to force warning pictures, and the price of cigarettes is lower than that of other international metropolises. In the opinion of the Associated Press reporter, Tokyo is still a "smoker's paradise."
In fact, the exception is that every place is based on the prohibition of vapes because e-liquid contains nicotine, because cigarettes contain nicotine, so it is only natural to include vapes in the scope of smoking bans. Although I don't agree with this approach, there is no nicotine in the e-liquid you use. It is difficult to distinguish when it is law enforcement. Perhaps this one-size-fits-all approach is the easiest way for the government to achieve it.
