A study of World Health Organization (WHO) has revealed that electronic cigarette (vape) usage has serious long-term impacts on human brain function, posing severe risks to health, life, and contributing to issues like anxiety disorders, intellectual impairment, addiction, and lung perforation.
In particular, teenagers who use electronic cigarettes face an elevated risk of developing nicotine addiction and tobacco dependency. In response, the Minister of Education issued the order “Prohibition of electronic cigarette use in educational institutions”.
Institution heads, directors, and rectors at all levels, regardless of ownership, must adhere followings:
-
Regularly organize awareness programs, educating students about the health risks of electronic cigarettes. These initiatives will be coordinated with relevant management and governmental and non-governmental organizations.
-
Collaborate with healthcare providers to facilitate one-on-one meetings with students who use e-cigarettes, offering them psychological counseling and support.
-
Include clauses of e-cigarette use prohibitions within each institution’s rules and internal policies.
Furthermore, parents, guardians, and caregivers are urged to closely monitor their children, engaging in discussions to educate them on the harmful effects and health hazards associated with e-cigarette use.
