A recent study showed over 1/4th of high school students are vaping regularly.

They tried a vape product in the last 30 days is what the study found (24%) 'Regular use' of at least once a day is about 8% vs 6% smoking cigarettes. Interestingly, there's no result pairing the two data points - I'd very much like to know how much of the 6% smoking cigarettes (or other tobacco products) also are part of the 8% who have used a vaping product at least once a day.

1/3 of high school students also tried an alcoholic drink in the last 30 days. Obviously we need to ban alcohol...

As for it being a gateway - please tell me how someone goes from pickle flavored vaping to smoking? Oh, but I could see an easier path if people are vaping ash tray flavored liquids (the result of banning flavors...)

I'd very much like to know how much of the 6% smoking cigarettes (or other tobacco products) also are part of the 8% who have used a vaping product at least once a day.

I'd also like to see reliable data on what percentage smoked tobacco before vaping even existed vs how many smoke tobacco now.
