According to a report by Suckhoedoisong on October 16th, a recent survey revealed that 8.35% of middle and high school students in Hanoi, Vietnam are currently using e-cigarettes. Among students in grades 10 to 12, this percentage rises to 12.6%. This data signifies the growing prevalence of e-cigarette use among Vietnamese youth, highlighting the essential need to provide accurate scientific information to enhance students' understanding of the risks associated with e-cigarette consumption.
In order to achieve this objective, experts in e-cigarette prevention organized such events to raise awareness among students about the hazards of e-cigarettes. The aim of these activities was to enhance their understanding of this issue by educating students and parents about the dangers of e-cigarettes.
This event was co-hosted by the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids and school leaders, with the aim of completely eradicating e-cigarettes from schools and society as a whole. Unlike previous events, this month's activities were centered around the theme of "Excluding E-cigarettes, Protecting Student Health," encouraging students to actively explore the dangers of e-cigarettes.
Due to its increased portability and ease of use compared to traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes have gained popularity among a certain group of users who even engage in activities such as drug consumption, which pose a threat to society.
Therefore, in Vietnam, e-cigarettes have not only had an impact on individual health but also on the social environment. To address this issue, the Ministry of Health in Vietnam has recommended that the government ban all imports and sales of e-cigarettes. This proposition has garnered support from the Cultural and Educational Committee of the National Assembly as well as other researchers and educators.
