Description
Deborah Carvalho Malta and four colleagues published a survey study in two thousand twenty-six on tobacco use among Brazilian teenagers. School surveys track experimentation and current use of cigarettes, hookah, and electronic cigarettes. Trends for two thousand twenty-four were compared with two thousand fifteen and two thousand nineteen.
Lifetime experimentation climbed from about seventeen to thirty percent across the period. Past-month electronic cigarette use more than tripled, reaching nearly nine percent. In contrast, cigarette, hookah, and overall tobacco use in the past month all fell. The authors urge keeping the e-cigarette ban, expanding school education, and tightening enforcement. They frame vaping as the rising front of youth nicotine use.
