Vapes could lead to health harms in children, doctors warn

"The evidence showed 'clear links' with respiratory symptoms, nicotine dependence and subsequent cigarette smoking."

— Prof Will Carroll , Academic

"Vaping is still a relatively new product, and there is much we do not yet know about its long-term impact on children and young people but a clear and concerning picture is emerging."

— Dr Mike McKean , Academic

"The evidence remains clear that vaping is less harmful than smoking but is not risk free."

— Hazel Cheeseman , Executive

"Vapes can play an important role for current smokers looking to quit, but anyone who doesn't smoke, shouldn't vape, and that is especially true for children."

— Andrew McCracken , Activist
