Ngomhla lu-1 kuNhlangulana, i-Ukraine yaphasisa ukuvinjelwa kwemikhiqizo ephunga elimnandi, ngaphandle kwaleyo enokunambitheka kukagwayi, ukuze kuvinjelwe ukufutha kwentsha. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuvinjelwa kunwetshelwe kunoma yikuphi ukusetshenziswa komphakathi nokumaketha imikhiqizo yokuphefumula. Abanye abalawuli e-Ukraine bayasithethelela lesi sinyathelo ngokucaphuna ukuqagela kwe-WHO kokuthi ukufutha kuyisango lokubhema, futhi kungaletha ukulimala okufanayo empilweni njengokubhema.
I-WHO sekunesikhathi eside ithatha isinyathelo ngokumelene ne-vaping, kodwa ezinye zezimangalo zayo eziphathelene nokuphepha kwe-vaping azikafakazelwa okwamanje. Kunezinye izizathu ezimbili zokuthi kungani i-Ukraine idiliza i-vaping. Okokuqala, ngokusho kwe-European School Survey Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs (ESPAD), i-5.5% yentsha yase-Ukraine isebenzisa i-e-cigarettes, futhi ingxenye yakhuphukela ku-18.4% eminyakeni emibili nje kamuva.
Abanye abacwaningi bathola ukuthi lokhu kwanda okubukhali kungase kuhlobane nokumaketha okunamandla kwemikhiqizo ye-e-cigarettes ezweni. Okwesibili, i-Ukraine iyizwe elikhulu kunazo zonke eYurophu, nakuba ingaphandle kwe-EU. Ihlela ukufaka isicelo sobulungu ku-EU ngo-2024. Njengoba amazwe amaningi nangaphezulu angamalungu e-EU, njengeFinland neHungary, eqala ukuvinjelwa kwe-flavour, akumangazi ukuthi i-Ukraine ingenza okufanayo njengomzamo wokufinyelela ukuhlanganiswa kwe-Europe.
Nokho, ukuthi ukuvinjelwa kuzoholela emiphumeleni ekhuthazayo kungenye indaba. Ngemuva kokuthi i-WHO ixwayise abantu ngezingozi ezingaba khona zokuphefumula umoya, ithole ukuphindiselwa emuva kanzima kubameli be-vaping. Ngisho naphakathi kwezinhlangano zezempilo, kukhona ukwehlukana—okuncane okuvumelanayo okungatholakala uma kuziwa ekuphepheni kwemikhiqizo eshisayo.
Ngokwesibonelo, kungakhathaliseki izinsongo ezesabekayo ze-WHO mayelana nogwayi we-elekthronikhi, i-Public Health England igcizelela ukuthi i-vaping “iyingozi engaphansi ngo-95% kunokubhema ugwayi.” Phela, umhwamuko oholwa ngabasebenzisi bakagwayi uqukethe amakhemikhali anobuthi obuncane kakhulu uma kuqhathaniswa nogwayi ovuthayo. Kungakho inani elikhulu lezikhungo zezokwelapha zaseBrithani zihlanganisa nogwayi we-elekthronikhi ezinhlelweni zokusiza abantu ukuba bayeke ukubhema.
Ngo-2000, cishe amaphesenti angu-34 abantu base-Ukraine bayabhema, kanti ngo-2015 lapho imikhiqizo yokuphefumula yamukelwa njengezinye izindlela ezisebenzayo zikagwayi, iphesenti lehla laya ku-28%, futhi kulindeleke ukuthi liqhubeke lehle liye ku-24% ngo-2025. yehlisa ukuthambekela kwababhemayo ukushintshela ezintweni eziphephile nezinempilo esikhundleni sikagwayi wendabuko.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, mayelana nokunciphisa ukuchayeka kwentsha kumakhemikhali anobuthi, i-Ukraine ingase futhi iye kolunye uhlangothi. Abenzi bomthetho base-Ukraine basola i-e-liquid ebabazekayo njengesilingo esikhulu sokuthi intsha isebenzise imikhiqizo eshisayo, kodwa ukumangalelwa kubonakala kungenasisekelo. Ngokusho kwe-Yale School of Public Health, lapho ukuvinjelwa kwe-flavour kuqala ukusebenza, abafundi besikole esiphakeme cishe banethuba eliphindwe kabili lokuqala ukusebenzisa ugwayi ovamile.
I-Ukraine iyiziba idatha yangempela mayelana ne-vaping kanye nemiphumela ukuvinjelwa okunjalo okungase kulethwe. Ngokuphambene nalokho okulindeleke abalawuli, ukuvinjelwa kungase kuphoqe labo basebenzisi bakagwayi be-elekthronikhi, okuhlanganisa nabancane, ukuthi baphendukele kugwayi ovamile oyingozi kakhulu.
