  • The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health in the UK reviewed 81 studies on children and vaping.
  • It found links to wheezing, coughing, allergies, sleep problems, eye symptoms, anxiety, depression, ulcers and dry mouth.
  • Long-term studies also found vaping leads many children to start smoking cigarettes later.
  • Nearly one in five children aged 11 to 17 in Britain have tried vaping. Britain has already banned single-use vapes and vape advertising.
