According to Terekhov, vaping is dangerous to health, especially for children and adolescents. Since 2023 in the Kaliningrad region recorded 29 cases of poisoning due to their use. Last year alone, police received 65 reports of teenagers smoking vapes. In one such case, a minor was killed.
MPs unanimously supported the ban in the first reading. Now the bill will be considered again at the next meeting of the Legislative Assembly. During the discussion, it was also proposed to increase the period of the ban and strictly punish for the sale of vapes bypassing restrictions.
