00:00:03.523 --> 00:00:06.863 
Although there are regulations
prohibiting production, business, import and use, 

00:00:07.163 --> 00:00:10.503 
Electronic cigarettes are still quietly
appearing in the lives of a part of young people. 

00:00:10.983 --> 00:00:12.843 
Reporter's record at a coffee shop, 

00:00:13.203 --> 00:00:15.463 
a young man still publicly uses e-cigarettes. 

00:00:15.823 --> 00:00:18.323 
When asked about the ban, this person calmly said, 

00:00:18.663 --> 00:00:22.223 
is addictive, unable to quit, showing a
worrying level of dependence. 

00:00:22.555 --> 00:00:26.475 
About 3-4 years late already. 

00:00:26.475 --> 00:00:35.366 
I also know it's harmful to health, but
now I'm just getting used to it, so I 

00:00:35.366 --> 00:00:36.935 
can't give up. 

00:00:37.088 --> 00:00:39.707 
Accompanying the group, a female student
carrying e-cigarettes shared that 

00:00:39.707 --> 00:00:42.588 
although she knows the prohibition
regulations, she still uses them secretly. 

00:00:42.968 --> 00:00:45.848 
According to this person, seals are
mainly ordered online, but finding them 

00:00:45.848 --> 00:00:47.528 
is no longer as easy as before. 

00:00:48.005 --> 00:00:51.005 
Now just buy pills online, now buying
outside people don't sell anymore 

00:00:51.005 --> 00:00:54.505 
Now it's more expensive, the price is
much higher than the previous one. 

00:00:54.505 --> 00:00:57.545 
Now it's just a moment of mixing up, but
I still don't dare to make it public. 

00:00:57.547 --> 00:01:00.447 
Not only appearing sporadically in
public places, e-cigarettes trading 

00:01:00.447 --> 00:01:03.347 
activities are still taking place
in many sophisticated forms. 

00:01:03.767 --> 00:01:06.030 
Although functional agencies have
continuously discovered and handled 

00:01:06.030 --> 00:01:09.707 
cases of illegal trading, a survey by
reporters on social networks shows that 

00:01:10.087 --> 00:01:13.697 
many accounts still set up closed groups
to approach teenagers, products are 

00:01:13.697 --> 00:01:17.307 
advertised with fruit flavors, cheap
slag, exploiting the curiosity of young people. 

00:01:17.307 --> 00:01:20.552 
Transactions are mainly carried out via
private messages, flexible payment by 

00:01:20.552 --> 00:01:22.027 
transfer or receiving paid goods, 

00:01:22.027 --> 00:01:25.947 
creating an uncontrollable underground
market, challenging current management measures. 

00:01:26.367 --> 00:01:29.873 
Talking to reporters, Dr. Nguyen Trung
Nguyen, director of the Poison Control 

00:01:29.873 --> 00:01:31.627 
Center of Bach Mai Hospital warned, 

00:01:32.067 --> 00:01:35.231 
e-cigarettes and heated tobacco contain
thousands of harmful substances, of 

00:01:35.231 --> 00:01:37.447 
which nicotine is a strong addictive substance, 

00:01:37.707 --> 00:01:40.587 
can destroy the nervous system,
seriously affecting internal organs and 

00:01:40.587 --> 00:01:42.027 
the long-term health of users. 

00:01:42.470 --> 00:01:45.030 
Electronic cigarettes, heating
cigarettes, but there are other new types of cigarettes 

00:01:45.030 --> 00:01:47.410 
Then besides its spine is nicotine 

00:01:47.410 --> 00:01:51.010 
It's polluting, it's very toxic. 

00:01:51.010 --> 00:01:52.390 
A lot of diseases in the skin already 

00:01:52.390 --> 00:01:53.890 
It's already very heavy. 

00:01:53.890 --> 00:01:56.410 
Then there are a lot of fragrance chemicals inside 

00:01:56.410 --> 00:01:57.950 
Tens of thousands of fragrance chemicals introduced 

00:01:58.930 --> 00:02:00.670 
Another skin subproduct too 

00:02:00.670 --> 00:02:03.510 
And then the new
generation synthetic drug. 

00:02:04.491 --> 00:02:07.256 
The above reality shows that although
regulations have been tightened, 

00:02:07.256 --> 00:02:10.851 
e-cigarettes are still circumventing
many loopholes to survive and creep into young people. 

00:02:11.251 --> 00:02:15.391 
If there are no more drastic and
synchronous control measures, the risk of increasing users, 

00:02:15.491 --> 00:02:18.664 
especially teenagers will continue,
leading to many unpredictable 

00:02:18.664 --> 00:02:20.251 
consequences for public health.
