How Vapes Are Appealing To (and Harming) Our Kids 

Bright colours, trendy designs, and cool flavours. E-cigarettes or vapes have been the new in-thing for a while, despite escalating warnings that they’re not the less harmful cousins to traditional cigarettes they’re touted to be. In fact, we’re now seeing the unique harms of vaping, especially among children. In conjunction with World No Tobacco Day this year, consultant urologist Dr George Lee is joined by Prof Dr Anna Marie Nathan, consultant paediatric pulmonologist from UMMC to discuss how vaping is harming our kids.
