How Juul Made $38bn While Addicting 27% of HighSchoolers to Nicotine.

You’d think marketing or promoting nicotine would be against the law. You’d think it’d be impossible to make claims against that. But Juul has created a vaping epidemic. It’s causing as many as 27% of high schoolers to be addicted to Nicotine. And it may lead to the next cigarette epidemic too – as 47% people who used Juul products would go on to start smoking within 18 month’s time.
