"The number of teenagers who reported using e-cigarettes in 2024 has tumbled from a worrisome peak reached five years ago, raising hopes among public health officials for a sustained reversal in vaping trends among teens."
"Overall, it found that just under 6 percent of middle and high school students reported vaping in the last month, down from nearly 8 percent among those surveyed last year."
"I want to be unequivocally clear that this continued decline in e-cigarette use among our nation's youth is a monumental public health win," said Brian King, the director of the F.D.A.'s tobacco division.
"Public health experts said the decline in teenage vaping may be due to several factors, including flavored tobacco bans, enforcement against sellers, and public messaging campaigns about the dangers of vaping."
