Hi. Thanks for watching this video. It’s from out Snapchat accounts, so it doesn’t
have sound like a traditional video. This particular clip talks about the FDA’s
new tobacco regulation. Today, the FDA issued new regulations on the
sale of tobacco products. Including a ban on the sale of e-cigarettes,
hookah, and cigars to to those under 18. The FDA’s new rule:
Prohibits sales to those under 18 Requires age verification by photo ID
Forbids the distribution of free samples These rule changes will go into effect in
90 days. Smoking harms nearly every organ in the body
and diminishes overall health. Smoking causes about 90 percent of lung cancer
deaths. E-cigarette use among high schoolers increased
by 900 percent in 2015. Visit Smokefree.gov if you or a loved one
