The San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Tuesday to ban the sale and distribution of vapes made by companies like San Francisco-based Juul Labs.
Between the supervisors’ vote and a ballot measure Juul is pushing that would override the ban, Juul spokesman Ted Kwong is busy touting the health benefits of keeping people vaping instead of smoking “deadly cigarettes.”
I have a hard time believing the health advice of a company that accepted a multi-billion dollar investment from the top U.S. cigarette manufacturer, Altria.
