Ephepheni layo lakamuva le-Izingqinamba ezisemqoka, i-Gippsland Primary Health Network (Gappsland PHN) manje isixwayisa umphakathi ngokusebenza kwe-vaping. Inethiwekhi ifuna umphakathi ukwazi lokho usebenzisa i-e-cigarettes akuphephile njengoba abantu abaningi befuna ukukholelwa.
Ephepheni, i-PHN ithi i-vaping itholakale ithwala imiphumela emibi eminingi. Eminye yemiphumela emibi kakhulu ihlanganisa izinkinga zamaphaphu nenhliziyo ezibangelwa amakhemikhali atholakala emikhiqizweni yokufutha. Leli phephandaba liphinde lathi ucwaningo seluxhume i-vaping nomdlavuza. Eminye imiphumela engemihle ihlanganisa ubuthi nokuquleka.
Leli phepha liphinde lidalule ukuthi ukusebenzisa ugwayi we-elekthronikhi kuveza amalungu omphakathi ekuhlawulisweni kwezinhlayiyana ezifana nalezo ezitholakala emoyeni ongcolile kanye nemililo yehlathi kanye nezinto ezinensimbi enamandla kakhulu. Lokhu kokubili kungaba nemithelela eminingi yesikhashana neyesikhathi eside. Imithelela yesikhashana ihlanganisa ukucasuka komphimbo, izinkinga zokuphefumula, ukuhlanza nokukhwehlela phakathi kwezinye izinkinga eziningi zempilo.
Ngokuka-Amanda Proposch, isikhulu esiphezulu se-Gippsland Primary Health Network, leli phepha lihlinzeka ngezibalo eziningi ezibalulekile kodwa ezishaqisayo ezibonisa ukwanda kwabantu abadala base-Victorian abathatha i-vaping. Uthi i-vaping esifundazweni ikhule ngo-5% isuka ku-17% ngo-2018-2019 yaya ku-22% ngo-2022. Lokhu kuyashaqisa ngoba iningi labantu abadala abathi basebenzise imikhiqizo ye-vaping bakholelwa ukuthi ugwayi we-e-cigarette uphephe kakhulu kunogwayi. ugwayi wesintu. Inkinga ngalokhu ukuthi imikhiqizo ye-vaping isakhiqiza amakhemikhali amaningi atholakala emikhiqizweni kagwayi yendabuko.
Kwabangu-22% kumaphesenti abantu abadala abathi basebenzise imikhiqizo yokuphefumula cishe u-6.1% bangabasebenzisi bamanje. Lokhu kukhuphuka kusuka ku-3% ngo-2018-2019. Isibalo sabasebenzisi abajwayelekile bemikhiqizo yokufutha sikhule sisuka ku-1.6% saya ngaphezu kuka-3.5%. Unksz Proposch ukhathazekile ngokuthi ukwanda okukhulu kwabantu abavape senzeke kulabo abaneminyaka engaphansi kuka-30. Ngokusho kwephepha, isibalo Osemncane abesilisa (abaneminyaka eyi-18-24) abavamayo bakhule besuka ku-10.8% ngo-2018-19 baya ku-19.4% ngo-2022. Lokhu ukukhula okukhulu kwezigameko ze-vaping phakathi kwawo wonke amaqembu eminyaka.
But it is not just the Osemncane adults. A recent survey conducted among Australian school staff revealed that 78% of them were concerned about the increasing cases of school kids vaping both in secondary and primary schools.
NgokukaNks Proposch, okuwukuphela kwendlela yokusiza abantu base-Australia futhi ikakhulukazi abaseVictoria baphile impilo enempilo futhi ende ukuxazulula izinkinga ze-vaping ezweni. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi kutholakale ukuthi imikhiqizo ye-vaping iqukethe i-nicotine eyengeziwe futhi lokhu kuyenza ibe umlutha kakhulu. Lokhu kuholela intsha eningi futhi Osemncane abadala ukuthi bacabangele ukubhema ugwayi. Inkinga ngalo mkhuba yilabo bantu abasha ababika izinkinga ngokusebenzelana komphakathi, impilo engokwengqondo ebuthakathaka kanye nokwehla kokusebenza kokubili emisebenzini yezemfundo neyomzimba.
UNksz Proposch ucela bonke ababambiqhaza ukuthi baqale ukukhuthaza ukuvinjelwa kwemikhiqizo ekhipha umphunga. Lokhu uthi kubalulekile ngoba okwamanje abantu bangathenga imikhiqizo yokushunqisa phezu kwekhawunta futhi lokhu kwenza kube lula ngezingane eziningi ezifunda isikole kanye nabantu abasha ukuthi bathole le mikhiqizo eyingozi.
