VAPIN GFACTS

Vaping devices heat the e-juice w hen you puff on them .

E-juice contains chem icals, flavourings, and often nicotine.

There are currently over 7000 e-juice flavoursused to im prove the taste of vapour.

D ID YO U KN O W ?

Batteries of vaping devices can explode and cause fires that m ay result in burns and injuries.

7

Objective:• To increase understanding of vaping products – what they are and how they work 

Talking Points:

• Smoking (e.g. cigarettes, pipes and cigars) burns tobacco. Vaping devices  don’t burn, rather they heat the e‐juice to make an  aerosol. 

• Aerosol is also knows as vapour or cloud.• The e‐juice has chemicals and flavourings. Most contain nicotine.• There are more than 7,000 flavours of e‐juice.

• Why are there so many flavours?Answer: To hide the “bad” taste of the chemicals and nicotine.

Did you know …?• Some vapes can explode and cause fires.• Optional: Share a story from one of the links.Comments/ Suggestions:Stories of interest:Vape explodes in Alberta teen’s face: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta‐

Objective:

• To explain the different types of  vaping products 

Talking Points:

• You may hear different names for them, but they work the same way.Examples: Vape pens, box mods and pod mods

• Vapes have evolved over time to deliver nicotine more efficiently to the brain. • JUUL is an example of a vaping product that uses pods and is now very popular. 

The pods contain high amounts of nicotine in a form which the body can readily absorb; thus providing a “great hit” of nicotine.

Comments/ Suggestions:

• Newer devices are smaller and therefore easier to use, carry and hide. E.g. pod mods such as JUUL.

Objective:

• To explain the components of vaping products and how they work 

Talking Point:

• The vapes have several parts: Battery Atomizer which is the heating element (coil) Tank or cartridge which contains the e‐juiceMouthpiece

• When the vape is puffed on, the atomizer heats the e‐juice and turns it into vapour.

Nicotine

Objective:

• To identify what’s in the vapour 

Talking Points:Often people think the vapour is water but it is an aerosol 

• The vapour/aresol cloud can include:o Nicotine – very addictive and can alter brain development o A number of harmful chemicals, such as:

Toxic Chemicals Also found it:Heavy metals Lead‐Based paintCarbonyls Embalming liquidTobacco‐specific nitrosamines  CigarettesVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) GasolinePolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) Vehicle exhaustTiny particles  Wildfire smoke

•  Some of the above are known to be cancer‐causing.

Comments/ Suggestions:

VOCs ‐ are a variety of chemicals that can have a negative effect on your health. They can cause shortness of breath, headaches, dizziness and irritation of the lungs. When it is mixed or combined with nitrogen oxide (in presence of sunlight), it produces smog which hurts your lungs.Carbonyls ‐ (e.g. formaldehyde, an embalming or preservative for science specimens) irritate the lungs.Heavy metals ‐There are metal coils attached to the atomizer. When heated, these coils transfer heavy metals to the vapour or aerosol. Chronic exposure to heavy metals can lead to cancer.

Objective:

• To understand that second‐hand vapour can also be harmful to bystanders and pets

Talking Points:

• Second‐hand vapour is exhaled by the users and contains the same chemicals found in the vapour, which poses a risk to bystanders and pets.

• Can you give me some examples of places where people may breathe in second‐hand vapour?

E.g. school bathrooms, bus stops, on the bus, etc.

FACT O R M YTH ?

Let’s play TRU E or FALSE

14

Objectives:• To assess students’ knowledge and engage them by playing  “True or False”.• To clarify the misconceptions associated with vaping products

Talking Points:

Game: True or FalseThere are various ways to play this game.

How to Play – Ideas:“True” or “False” response cards

Prepare response cards. E.g. Write “True” on one side of card in green and “False” in red on the other side. Distribute response cards to students. Have students raise their response card to each statement you pose.  Ensure each raised card faces you so you can assess the number of correct responses and see how much students know about this topic. You could divide the class into groups to allow discussion and use fewer response cards.

Have students stand in a line in the centre of the room. If the statement is “true”, student can step to the right. If the statement is “false”, student can step to the left. Please note: Some may feel “exposed” if they did not get the correct response because everyone can see everybody else’s response based on which side of the line they step. However, it might be fun and is a good way to get the students more engaged instead of sitting at their desks.

TRU E

It could be years before the health

effects of vaping are fully know n.

It took decades to learn

all the health effects

of sm oking cigarettes.

17

Talking Points: True

• E‐cigarettes were invented in 2003 by a pharmacist in China, who wanted to 

make a device less harmful than cigarettes to deliver nicotine. 

• Only the short‐term health effects, such as irritation to the lungs are known.

• It may take scientists 15‐20 years to learn about all the health effects of vaping.

• Respiratory symptoms include rapid onset of coughing, shortness of breath, chest pain, difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, fever, and weight loss

• Pneumonia‐like symptoms

What seems to be causing the illness?The CDC suspects "chemical exposure,"no definitive link to any brand of device, ingredient, flavor or substance.The outbreak has affected users of both THC‐ and nicotine‐containing products, but it is more prevalent among THC vapers than users who self‐report using only nicotine products.Because a large number of the patients reported combining nicotine products with THC or CBD products, some researchers are looking into whether the illness may be a result of mixing substances.In all confirmed cases, patients reported vaping within 90 days of developing symptoms, and most had vaped within a week of symptom onset.“At least one vitamin E acetate‐containing vape product has been linked to each patient who submitted a product for testing,”. Even though vitamin E acetate is safely used in nutritional supplements, “its oil‐like properties could be associated with the observed symptoms,” The FDA is analyzing a collection of over 120 product samples provided by state public health officials for the presence of a broad range of chemicals, including nicotine, THC and other cannabinoids, cutting agents, additives, pesticides, opioids, poisons, heavy metals and toxins.

TRU E

Flavours are added to hide

the taste of nicotine and

These flavours attract

young people.

23

Talking Points:

True

• There are many flavours to attract youth. It is one of the main reasons for youth 

vaping.

• Flavours hide the taste of nicotine and chemicals.

• Popular flavours include menthol, alcohol, candy and fruit. 

Comments/ Suggestions: 

Teachers may elaborate that the flavours are highly appealing to youth. It is one of the main reasons for trying vaping.

2017‐2018

74% increase in youth vaping

in ages 16‐19 years

Canadian Cancer Society June 20, 2019Study finds dramatic 74% increase in youth vaping in Canada20 June 2019OTTAWA ‐The study, led by Professor David Hammond of the University of Waterloo, found that among those 16‐19 years old, vaping increased by a stunning 74% from 2017 to 2018, from 8.4% to 14.6%. The study was conducted in August/September 2017 and again in August/September 2018

The study presents the first data since the major tobacco companies launched and heavily advertised their own e‐cigarette brands in Canada following the May 2018 adoption of Bill S‐5 which legalized e‐cigarettes with nicotine. The study results are consistent with indications from across Canada of high schools struggling to respond to a rapid increase in youth vaping.

Significant increase in e‐cig use for students who had smoked – 16% (2013) to 64% (2018)In 2013, 16% of students who had smoked reported using an e‐cigarette in the past month.In 2018, 64% of students who had smoked used a vape pen or vape stick with nicotine, and 43%used a vape pen or stick without nicotine in the past month.Among youth who had never smoked cigarettes, cigars or cigarillos, 11% used a vape pen or stick with nicotine, and 13% used one without nicotine in the past 30 days.
