Warning to parents: Tell your children vaping is not safe

Abstract

Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) — another phrase for e‐cigarettes or “vaping” — should clearly convey the message that whether your child is inhaling smoke or is “vaping” it, an addictive substance is involved. In addition, the assumption that vaping does not involve carcinogens is wrong, according to an article published in the Oct. 23 issue of JAMA Pediatrics on the “Patient Page.”
