High school students in the U.S. are using e-cigarettes at a record rate, with fruit, mint, and menthol flavors being the most popular. The Trump administration is moving to ban non-tobacco e-cigarette flavors in response to the surge in teen vaping rates. Public health advocates blame companies like Juul for making vaping trendy among young people and erasing progress in reducing smoking rates among minors.
