New York Becomes First State To Officially Ban Flavored E-Cigarettes

New York State has implemented an emergency ban on flavored e-cigarettes, excluding menthol and tobacco flavors, as proposed by Governor Cuomo. The ban is effective immediately, with enforcement starting October 4th. Retailers have two weeks to comply, and violations will incur severe penalties. The ban aims to address health concerns and prevent underage sales. Similar actions are being considered in Michigan and California, while the Trump administration seeks to block all non-tobacco flavored vaping products. The CDC reports 380 vaping-related illnesses and seven deaths in the US.
