Notable Quotes (3)
The air quality index around those saunas was measured... to be 150... It's considered unhealthy for everyone.
When Juul became available... it went from very few young people smoking... to college campuses... running out of Juul pods within hours.
We need to address vapes... the tobacco distance regulations were exempted... my ward has been inundated with tobacco stores.
