Brazil’s Mato Grosso state legislature passes bill banning the use of e-cigarettes in public and private collective environments.
According to Primeirahora’s report on November 6, the Legislative Assembly of the state of Mato Grosso in Brazil has passed a bill to ban the use of e-cigarettes in both public and private collective environments.
The bill was proposed by State Representative Sheila Klener (PSDB) and has been confirmed and approved by the state legislature.
The passing of this bill aims to update legal provisions in response to emerging social issues caused by e-cigarettes. One of the main concerns is the widespread usage and rapid addiction among the youth population, who engage in vaping either to fit in with their peers or to enhance their social status.
