To review the current prevalence, trends, perceptions, and effects of e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury (EVALI) on e-cigarette use among US adolescents and young adults.
COVID-19 diagnosis was more likely among the current/ever dual cigarette and e-cigarettes users, as well as ever e-cigarette only users. Additionally, the EVALI outbreak may have influenced harm perceptions, as daily nicotine vaping declined significantly from 2019 to 2020, and more youth and young adults perceived vaping as harmful.
The prevalence of e-cigarette use, specifically flavored use, remains high among adolescents and young adults, which is concerning due to the short-term and unknown long-term effects of e-cigarettes and their association with future cigarette and other substance use.
回顾美国青少年和青年中电子烟或雾化产品使用相关肺损伤（EVALI）的当前流行情况、趋势、认知及其对电子烟使用的影响。
当前/曾经同时使用香烟和电子烟的人群以及曾经仅使用电子烟的人群中，感染新冠病毒的可能性更高。此外，EVALI的爆发可能影响了对危害的认知，因为从2019年到2020年，每日尼古丁雾化使用量显著下降，并且更多的青少年和青年认为雾化有害。
电子烟使用，尤其是调味电子烟的使用，在青少年和青年中仍然很普遍，鉴于电子烟的短期和未知长期影响及其与未来吸烟和其他物质使用的关联，这令人担忧。
