电子烟 electronic cigarette China is planning to establish legislation to supervise electronic cigarettes as part of overall tobacco control efforts as use of the products increases among the youth, the National Health Commission said on Monday. 周一，国家卫健委表示，随着青少年对电子烟使用量的增加，中国正计划立法监管电子烟，作为全面控烟工作的一部分。 目前主流的电子烟（electronic cigarettes/e-cigarettes）大部分都是通过一个雾化器（vaporator）将包含丙二醇、植物甘油、调味香料和尼古丁等成分的烟油变成蒸汽，模拟吸烟时产生类似烟雾。 国家卫生健康委规划司司长毛群安表示，电子烟的危害问题应该引起高度重视。 电子烟产生的气溶胶含有许多有毒有害的物质（toxic substances），电子烟中的各种添加剂成分（additives）也存在着健康风险（health risk）。另外，许多电子烟产品所含的尼古丁浓度标识模糊（nicotine concentration claim on the label is vague），容易导致使用者吸食过量。 同时，电子烟的器具还存在着电池爆炸（battery explosion）、烟液渗透（tobacco juice leak）、高温烫伤（scald burn risk）等安全风险。 About 0.9 percent of people in China were e-cigarette users last year－compared with 0.5 percent in 2015－according to a survey released by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention in May, which was based on nearly 20,000 people across China. The number of e-cigarette users in China who are 15 years or older is estimated at 10 million, the center said. 中国疾病预防控制中心5月份发布的一项调查显示，去年中国约有0.9%的人使用电子烟，而2015年这一比例为0.5%。该调查是根据中国全国近2万人进行的。该中心说，中国15岁以上的电子烟用户估计有1,000万。 "To reduce tobacco prevalence, we must prevent adolescents from trying tobacco. But e-cigarettes can easily lure youngsters and turn them into users of traditional tobacco later," Mao said. “为了减少烟草流行，我们必须防止青少年尝试烟草。但电子烟很容易吸引年轻人，让他们以后成为传统烟草的使用者。“毛说。 It is necessary to intensify supervision over e-cigarettes. The National Heath Commission is working with other related departments conducting research on e-cigarette supervision and planning to put it under supervision through legislative means. 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/c47928567c21af45b307e87101f69e314332fa2d.html
