Michigan Physicians Applaud Governor Whitmer’s Bold Move to Protect Children from Vaping, Nicotine Addiction

Michigan State Medical Society (MSMS) President Mohammed A. Arsiwala, MD, today praised Governor Gretchen Whitmer for her announced plan to protect children from nicotine addiction, illness, and dangers associated with vaping.

“Governor Whitmer is right when she declares Michigan children’s use of e-cigarettes is a public health crisis, with lifelong and devastating consequences,” said Doctor Arsiwala. “Vaping is dangerous. The Governor’s bold move to ban the sale of flavored vaping products – products clearly and shamefully targeted at our kids – will prevent nicotine addiction before it starts, and make a real difference in children’s lives.”
