FDA ne apni policy mein ek bada badlav karte huye Los Angeles ki company Glas Inc. ke flavored vape products ko approve kar diya hai. Is approval mein mango aur blueberry flavors bhi shamil hain, jo pehle kabhi FDA se approve nahi hue the.
Wall Street Journal ki report ke mutabiq, President Donald Trump ne personally FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary par in flavored vapes ko approve karne ka pressure dala tha. Makary ne pehle White House ki preferences ko ignore karte huye Glas ke menthol, mango aur blueberry flavors ko approve karne se mana kar diya tha.
FDA ka naya stance — Biden era se kitna alag?
Biden administration ke time par FDA ne flavored vape products ke 26 million se zyada applications reject kar diye the. Lekin ab Trump administration ke under FDA ne pehli baar fruit-flavored vapes ko authorization di hai.
Fox Business ke mutabiq, yeh approval US history mein pehli baar hai jab FDA ne fruit-flavored e-cigarettes ko authorized kiya hai. Approved products mein Glas Inc. ke Classic Menthol, Fresh Menthol, Gold (mango flavor) aur Sapphire (blueberry flavor) shamil hain. Har product mein 5% tobacco-derived nicotine hai.
Isse pehle Juul Labs jaise companies ke authorized e-cigarette products sirf menthol ya tobacco-flavored the. Fruit flavors ko kabhi FDA approval nahi mila tha.
Trump ka pressure — kya hua tha?
The Independent ki report ke mutabiq, FDA ne yeh approval Trump ke pressure campaign ke kuch din baad hi diya. Makary ne pehle White House ki preferences ko ignore kiya tha, lekin baad mein Trump ke direct intervention ke baad approval diya gaya.
Vaping360 ne bhi is baat ki confirm ki hai ki Trump ne FDA ko Glas flavors authorize karne ke liye personally pressure dala.
Health experts ki kya rai hai?
Powers Health ke mutabiq, yeh move un news ke beech aaya hai jismein Trump ne reportedly FDA Commissioner Makary par flavored vapes approve karne ka pressure dala. Health experts ko flavored vapes ke youth use par chinta hai, kyunki fruit flavors traditionally youngsters ko attract karte hain.
Hamaari Baat: Policy reversal ka kya matlab hai?
Seedha baat karein toh — yeh ek massive policy reversal hai. Biden administration ne 26 million se zyada applications reject kiye the, aur ab Trump administration ne pehli baar fruit flavors ko approval diya. Yeh clearly dikhata hai ki administration change ke saath FDA ki policy bhi badal gayi.
Trump ka personally FDA Commissioner par pressure dalna bhi ek important signal hai. Isse pata chalta hai ki administration flavored vape industry ko support karna chahti hai, chahe health concerns kuch bhi hon. Hamari nazar mein, yeh decision youth vaping crisis ko aur badha sakta hai, kyunki mango aur blueberry jaise flavors traditionally teenagers ko attract karte hain.
Lekin doosri taraf, adult vapers ke liye yeh ek positive step ho sakta hai jo flavored options chahte hain. Baat dono taraf ki hai — health concerns vs consumer choice. Dekhte hain aage kya hota hai.
