FDA Announces New E-Cigarette Rules.

reports the “499-page regulatory road map has broad implications for public health, the tobacco industry and the nation’s 40 million smokers.” The Times says the “long-awaited regulations shift the terms of the intense public debate over e-cigarettes, which deliver nicotine without the harmful tar and chemicals that cause cancer” and “have sharply divided American public health experts.” According to the Times, “The new regulations would ban the sale of e-cigarettes to Americans under 18 and would require that many people buying them show photo identification to prove their age, measures already mandated in a number of states.” http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/06/science/fda-rules-electronic-cigarettes.html?_r=0
