Vapor product PMTAs were due in September of 2020. The FDA has issued a final rule outlining what those applications should entail... in October of 2021. After removing millions of vapor products from the market for failing to fulfill those requirements. Seriously.

A story in two parts. Glad all the vape shops are closed with their pesky enforced age restrictions.

The FDA has spent the past month banning the vapor products that their own data shows had nothing to do with the youth use/experimentation “crisis.” While leaving products on the market that teens do actually use. 🤔🤔

Perhaps even more importantly the 2020 disposable use by current youth users was 26.5% (up from 2.4% in 2019). The 2021 data on youth disposable use is 53.7% among youth users. Strong evidence open system products aren’t the issue with teens. A fact the FDA ignores.

Golly🤔 I wonder if there’s a way to safely help people quit smoking? I would have sworn with all the trust I have in big pharma (especially these days with all the noble work they’ve been doing with vaccines for the good of the people.) this could never have happened.

I saw alcoholic ice pops in Target.
My hot take on @FDATobacco 's "action" yesterday. Zellar's mental gymnastics are honestly awe inspiring

But Muh FDA!!
The FDA has shown itself incapable of regulating the vapor industry, with neither the resources nor the backbone to make objective scientific decisions here. We shouldn’t have to pay for FDA’s shortcomings cei.org/blog/fda-shows-its-b… Time for some regulatory innovation.

“Science” is currently subjective.

The @US_FDA @CDCgov etc. are political apparatus beholden to corporate dollars. That is all.

I would rather get support from an upturned mop with a bucket on it's head than rely on ineffective and antiquated advice from @US_FDA Don't you remember how text messaging drove US smoking rates to the lowest in recorded history? Oh no wait that was #vaping

I might be pissed off, but I’m far from throwing in the towel. #vaping will win. #science WILL win. I’ll pout today, then come back at it refreshed and ready to discredit the myth making machine tomorrow.
Replying to @GrimmGreen
This is such a sad, sad day, my friends. I'm really broken up over this. I refuse to give up hope, though. I have to believe that truth will prevail in the end. We can and should take this to the highest court possible.

Buried on p5136 of the COVID-19 stimulus package: The ‘‘Preventing Online Sales of E-Cigarettes to Children Act’’. It bans USPS from delivering e-cigs or any of their components (eg liquids). Not clear who inserted this, nor how it would provide a Covid-related stimulus.

USPS language to ban mailing of vapor products is INCLUDED in the omnibus bill. We get 600 bucks and vapers get fucked again.... Not sure when effective date is, it's a bit confusing
