“We cannot compare vaping only to alcohol, drugs or other substances. I think all of them carry risks, and any of them can eventually harm you.”


Terephina Uushona

“I do not think vaping is as serious as drug abuse. I think vaping is simply trendier because it is more accessible and widely available.”


Revive Sauerwein

“Vaping is definitely more common and widespread among young people today, but it still carries risks. The problem is that many young people believe it is less harmful than other drugs.”


Tanaka Wadzingenyama

“The sensation makes people want it more, but they do not realise they are harming themselves internally. Most of the effects only become visible in the long term.”


Cecily Getachew

“I believe vaping is a serious concern among young people today. Although cigarettes and drugs may have more severe effects, vaping is highly addictive and should not be underestimated.”


Mercy Riekert

“It may appear safe on the surface, which makes it even more dangerous. Many teenagers do not realise how addictive and harmful vaping can be.”
