Michigan is set to become the first US state to ban the sale of flavored e-cigarettes, according to an announcement by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
The ban gives sellers 30 days to comply and lasts six months -- though the governor can decide to renew it. This includes sales in brick-and-mortar stores, as well as online sales.
Some health advocates say there's a lack of strong evidence that flavors are effective in getting adults to quit smoking. Previous research also suggested that the majority of kids who have tried pod-based e-cigarettes started with one that was flavored."Our kids deserve leaders who are going to fight to protect them," Whitmer said Wednesday."These bold steps will finally put an end to these irresponsible and deceptive practices and protect Michiganders' public health.
