Health officials don’t think e-cigarettes should be banned from public spaces
Banning e-cigarettes in public spaces could be “damaging”, health officials have said. The comments from Public Health England (PHE) come after a medic at the British Medical Association’s annual meeting in Belfast called for restrictions on places where e-cigarettes can be used in public. But if such a policy was in place, it may put off smokers from using e-cigarettes to help them quit, PHE said.
