A landmark vote to ban all flavoured electronic cigarettes and most e-liquid flavors used for vaping in New York has been approved by the New York City Council amid rising concern over its health effects and youth vaping.
The vote, which prohibits all flavors except for tobacco, was approved 42-2 on Nov. 26, and came just days after the second death in New York caused by a vaping-related illness. Gov. Andrew Cuomo previously raised concerns that the products were causing nicotine addiction among young people.
