The proposed legislation would establish Kenya\u2019s first legal framework for products such as vapes, nicotine pouches, and heated tobacco, which currently operate in a regulatory vacuum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVapes have been in existence for 20 years, yet we still don\u2019t have basic laws in Kenya to prevent them from being sold to under-18s,\u201d said Dr. Michael Kariuki, Secretary-General of the Harm Reduction Society. \u201cThis inaction is endangering public health by allowing misinformation to flourish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Kariuki stressed that the lack of clear regulation is preventing adult smokers from accessing reduced-risk alternatives, which could help many transition away from cigarettes\u2014a move backed by growing international evidence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the year since the bill was first published, smokers have faced a growing barrage of misinformation about these products\u2019 safety relative to cigarettes,\u201d he added. \u201cSmokers deserve accurate, science-based guidance\u2014not confusion and delay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Global Evidence Supports Harm Reduction<br \/>\nStudies have shown that countries with balanced regulations on nicotine alternatives\u2014like Sweden, the UK, and New Zealand\u2014have seen dramatic declines in smoking prevalence. In England, vaping is credited with helping over 3 million smokers quit in the last five years.<\/p>\n<p>A landmark Cochrane review of over 29,000 smokers concluded that vapes are more effective in helping smokers quit than traditional nicotine replacement therapies like patches or gum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKenya loses 12,000 people annually to tobacco-related diseases,\u201d said Dr. Kariuki. \u201cWe must urgently prioritize helping smokers quit. International research shows that nicotine products are among the most effective tools available.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Call for Balanced, Protective Regulation<br \/>\nThe Harm Reduction Society is advocating for a dual approach: protecting youth by banning underage access to nicotine products, while ensuring affordability and accessibility for adult smokers seeking to quit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, on World Vape Day, Kenya doesn\u2019t need more debate\u2014it needs action,\u201d Dr. Kariuki concluded. \u201cBalanced regulation will save lives, and every day of delay means more smokers are left without safer alternatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the world moves toward tobacco harm reduction, the delay of Kenya\u2019s legislative process may be undermining both public health goals and smokers\u2019 rights to make informed choices based on scientific evidence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya, May 30 &#8211; Health experts have raised alarm over delays in passing Kenya\u2019s Tobacco Control (Amendment) Bill 2024, warning that regulatory stagnation is fuelling misinformation about smokeless nicotine products and hindering efforts to reduce tobacco-related harm.
