Abstract
Adolescent electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use has continued due to the ongoing struggle with nicotine addiction affecting teenagers. By briefly discussing the timeline of the emergence of e-cigarettes and nicotine addiction in adolescents, this author hopes to shed some light on mitigation strategies to curtail this ongoing epidemic of youth e-cigarette use and nicotine addiction through public health education and advocacy.
