“Retail assessments were conducted in 43 stores in eight cities across the US… These stores included 28 gas stations or convenience stores and 15 vape/tobacco shops… Store assessments documented the availability of top-selling e-cigarette brands, including Juul, Vuse, NJOY, blu, Puff Bar and Bidi, as well as other disposable e-cigarettes and e-liquids.”

Comment: These findings illustrate how inadequate government regulation of e-cigarettes allows the purchase and use of e-cigarette products that threaten health.
