| Résumé : |
An estimated 2.8 million adults in Great Britain currently use electronic cigarettes (vape) up from only 700,000 in 2012, the first year ASH collected figures (see table 1 below).1 • Users are fairly evenly divided between smokers (1.4 million) and ex-smokers (1.3 million). The proportion of ex-smokers has increased, in 2014 two thirds of current vapers were smokers and one third ex-smokers. • The main reason given by ex-smokers who are currently vaping is to help them stop smoking while for current smokers the main reason is to reduce the amount they smoke. • Perceptions of harm from electronic cigarettes have grown with only 15% of the public accurately believing in 2016 that electronic cigarettes are a lot less harmful than smoking. The lowest level than at any time in the history of the Smokefree Britain survey. • Only 9% of vapers are using an e-liquid containing over 19 mg/ml (the limit in the Tobacco Products Directive is 20mg/ml) while 77% of vapers report using e-liquids containing 18 mg/ml of nicotine or less. • Among daily vapers only 11% report using more than 4ml of e-liquid a day. Under the Tobacco Products Directive the new limit for tank sizes is 2ml while the size limit for bottles is 10ml. The vast majority (72%) are using 4ml or less of e-liquid a day. |
