WTF is Australia thinking in banning vaping.
Trade in your pack of cigarettes for a Quit Kit! 🔁
64% of ex-smokers have said they used e-cigarettes, alongside behavioural support from a specialist stop smoking practitioner to go and remain smokefree.

You do have to wonder why Australia is persisting with prohibition TC policy when a clear example of working harm reduction policy is ignored right next door in NZ.
Once again New Zealand government acts as if all that matters is reducing smoking & therefore smoking-related deaths ASAP. But Australia’s vape policy is ‘world-leading’ cos based on premise policy should be all about virtue signalling
