Forget smoking now vaping could be banned in Spain
Nofumadores.org is urging the Spanish government to ban vaping, citing its appeal to youth and potential health risks.Summary
The advocacy group Nofumadores.org is calling for a complete ban on vaping in Spain, mirroring Mexico’s recent decision to prohibit the production, distribution, and sale of electronic cigarettes. President Raquel Fernández argues that the vaping industry deliberately targets young people through appealing flavors, marketing tactics, and social media influence, leading to nicotine addiction among minors. The organization contends that vaping is not a legitimate smoking cessation tool and presents significant health risks, including lung and cardiovascular damage, even for non-smokers. Nofumadores.org criticizes the industry for promoting a “toxic narrative” and calls for the government to debunk “harm reduction propaganda” and implement a national campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of vaping. They advocate for a ban on the manufacture, import, and sale of all vaping devices, alongside a plan for their removal from the market.
