The Volusia County school district is joining a mass action lawsuit against companies that market and sell electronic cigarettes that, the suit alleges, created the vaping epidemic.
The lawsuit will seek compensation for both past harm to districts, and compensation for future costs to install vape detectors in bathrooms, pay additional staff to supervise and counsel students and fund education on the harms of vaping.
The American Academy of Pediatrics said the use of electronic cigarettes, vape pens and pod systems by youth is a significant public health risk. And 50% of high schoolers reported ever using electronic vapor products in 2019, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
