== [[Call To Action: The World Health Organization is planning a global assault on vaping|New Nicotine Alliance Call To Action: The World Health Organization is planning a global assault on vaping]] == | |||
Today (19th March 2023), we are calling on our supporters, consumers of reduced risk nicotine products, and others who understand the benefits of harm reduction '''to act on significant threats''' planned by the World Health Organization (WHO) later this year. | |||
These include: | |||
* A ban on all open system vaping products | |||
* A ban of all flavours except tobacco | |||
* A ban on nicotine salts in vaping products | |||
* Regulating products so that they are all exactly the same and restrict delivery of nicotine | |||
* Demanding that countries around the world treat vaping and heated tobacco products the same as combustible tobacco | |||
* Taxation at the same rate as cigarettes, banning use where smoking is prohibited, large graphic health warnings, plain packaging, and a ban on all advertising, promotion and sponsorship | |||
