Health and Medical E Cigarettes Discussion

I don’t think either group has successfully produced a persuasive campaign for their target audience. The FDA’s ads, although somewhat awkward and uncomfortable, are easily overlooked and may even be comical to users. However, compared to the PHE, I feel they are closer to the right track. Although catchy, lines such as “Stoptober” do not seem to have an effect on people that see nothing wrong with what they are doing. Therefore, I think that because of the uncomfortable pictures, the FDA has a slightly stronger campaign. Furthermore, I believe that the weakest point of PHE’s campaign is promoting the swap to E-cigarettes.
I think that large health administrations need to prioritize the young, impressionable generation. Although, the goal is to get everybody to stop smoking, by promoting a safer, more tasteful alternative is exactly what they said, a gateway for children to start smoking.
I constantly see children as young as middle schoolers, walking around with vapes. From my experiences many middle schoolers and young high schoolers already know the risk of smoking, don’t see it “as cool” compared to vaping, or maybe just don’t like the taste. However, vaping has now become a social activity.
It tastes good, they are taught that the health effects aren’t as bad. It’s not a situation of the lesser of two evils, instead, they simply do not see the cons. Furthermore, as they grow older, they see how common smoking cigarettes are and vaping turns into a gateway for smoking. By this point in their life, they are not afraid of the act of smoking, not afraid of the taste and are looking for something new.
Overall, I think administrations need to work on appealing to their audience. I feel that the best way to do this is for social media or ads on videos. Recently, I have been seeing ads on Hulu about anti-smoking, although they may get annoying, I see them almost every time I turn my tv on and think this is a great way to address the audience.
I also think that they need to be more blatant about the effects. Rather than showing “worm-like creatures,” show the true effects. Have personal narratives spread across social media (Tik Tok, Instagram, YouTube) about how vaping and smoking negatively impacted their health.
I think personal testimonies, rather it be from a survivor or a family member/friend that lost someone are very powerful, and just because the audience may be children doesn’t mean you should go easy or hide the effects.

E-cigarettes have become a new significant public health concern. Cigarette smoking has long been regarded as repulsive by the general public. As a result, younger generations have shifted to e-cigarettes.
The danger is that we do not have enough information about e-cigarettes, given the fact that they are so new to us. Even though we all know that e-cigarettes, like cigarettes, are highly addictive and toxic. Another factor, nicotine use in adolescents and young adults can have a negative impact on brain development as well as the lungs.
The primary goal of e-cigarettes was to assist people in quitting smoking regular cigarettes, which, I assume, did not age well. Since, unfortunately enough, adolescents and young adults have become the new faces of vapes/ e-cigarettes.
Although I believe that advertisements (STOPOBER, TV ads, poster’s) advising people to stop vaping are effective, I also believe that those who are much younger and may lack recognition may become curious and want to experiment for themselves. It may persuade them to try vaping. Furthermore, I believe they may be heavily influenced to try vaping by others, which could have a number of negative consequences.
Recently, new laws were enacted that make it illegal for anyone under the age of twenty-one to purchase e-cigarettes, but there are always ways around that. Individuals may have someone of legal age obtain that for them, and so on. So, while banning e-cigarettes entirely may be effective in some ways, I believe it would still disadvantage a small number of people.
I also believe that if these products are completely prohibited, the vape companies that sell them will suffer significantly as a result.
Based on all of this, I believe the PHE could provide a more realistic pictures and maybe videos of how vapes can truly ruin a person’s life. I believe they could post videos on YouTube or even TikTok (the latest craze) to show people that this is not something that is viewed as “cool.” Demonstrate to people that vaping is ruining their youth.
