there's been such a big stigma created
around smoking cigarettes that stigma
isn't present for vaping yet with high
schoolers so I think this is bringing
awareness Montville high school 70 year
old Elena McGovern learning about the
dangers of vaping at the save your
breath presentation by addiction expert
Timothy shoemaker
I go to schools where the district has
enacted policies where they can't wear
long sleeves anymore because of the
vaping is so bad I go to schools we lay
over those patrols for the bathrooms
shoemaker travels the country targeting
kids in grades fit through 12th where
teen vaping is popular and considered an
epidemic by the Centers for Disease
Control he says his goal is to educate
students about everything ranging from
propaganda to how vaping affects your
brain and body if you'll gradually lead
them through down the path then they can
understand through the context of just
mass media marketing in general now I
see how Big Tobacco and Team nicotine
I've been using it they're ready for
that message whereas if you to say
they're predators they exploit people
you just you're saying words I think I
was most shocked at how similar
cigarettes are to vaping and I really
didn't know that before this because
everyone thinks cigarettes are so gross
and they would never do it and really
vaping is like the exact same thing I
think all the information was very valid
and the fact that he said like it's okay
that you don't know it's kind of like
reassuring and it's still it still sets
the point that it's bad and you should
stop almost all of the students I spoke
with say it was the graphic videos and
photos shown during shoemaker's
presentation that really struck a chord
with them what was something that stuck
with you the other kids in the hospital
like the respirator that they were on
which was little intubated probably the
explosion part of it definitely all the
facts information specially comes from
1920s which is hundred years from now
and January New Jersey became the first
state to permanently ban flavored vape
products including menthol the
aggressive approach was in an effort to
combat a growing number of minors using
electronic smoking devices
which is believed to cause nicotine
addiction among youth my point is not
that anyone who's selling these things
are even offering them are evil or
monsters my point is that our kids need
to know better and they need to make
better decisions on their own whereby
these threats potential threats become
irrelevant this afternoon his audience
was filled with more than 600 students
tonight it's their parents in Montville
