Addiction Audio

In this episode Dr Elle Wadsworth talks to Professor David Hammond about vaping. They discuss policy differences between the Canada, the UK and the US as well as changes relating to disposable vapes and the use of nicotine salts. They cover the environmental impact of some of these products before talking about the different choices available to policymakers when developing regulations.

“What the change has meant in England is that there’s probably more room for regulating some of these [vaping] products without undermining their use as a cessation aid”
