E-cigarette use for young adults ages 18 to 24 doubled from 2016 to 2022 which is the 2nd highest spike in the nation and researchers don't expect this climb to slow down any time soon.
TUCSON, Ariz. — E-cigarettes were introduced to the U.S. market in 2007 and have steadily gained popularity. A recent health report from Help Advisor and the Center for Disease Control shows the state of Arizona ranks second for the sharpest rise in vaping in teens and young adults.
The research team studied data from the CDC to determine where in the U.S. e-cigarette use has been increasing but also why the rates are so high for Arizona. They found young adults ages 18 to 24 increased 192% in Arizona from 2016 to 2022. Unlike traditional cigarettes, there is currently no special tax placed on e-cigarettes and their cartridges here in Arizona. You can also buy candy-flavored vapes, fruity chewing tobacco and menthol cigarettes whereas in other states it is illegal.
