The Trump administration is currently attempting to stop the sale of flavored e-cigarettes, citing that America's youth runs the risk of becoming addicted to nicotine. The plan is to ban all non-tobacco flavored vaping products. This comes on the heels of several lung-related diseases from vaping, including a string of recent deaths.
Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said the FDA is drafting a plan that will remove all flavored vaping products from shelves except plain tobacco. Both the president and the HHS secretary cite the growing use of vaping products by high schoolers who point to the variety of flavors as the reason for picking up the habit.
