Xiao L, Yin X, Di X, et al. Awareness and prevalence of e-cigarette use among Chinese adults: policy implications. Tobacco Control. Online First. 18 Feb. 2021. https://tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/early/2021/02/18/tobaccocontrol-2020-056114
“Prevalence of e-cigarettes among Chinese adults had increased since 2015, especially among young people aged 15–24. The high level of dual use and lower quit rate among e-cigarette users indicated e-cigarettes had not shown cessation utility at the population level in China. Regulation of e-cigarettes is needed to protect youth and minimise health risks.”
