Federal Health Minister Mark Butler believes it’s not too late to end the vaping epidemic flourishing in the country.

Mr Butler told Chris O’Keefe that vaping has gotten out of control.

“They were never sold, they were never presented as some sort of recreational device marketed to our kids,” said Mr Butler.

“I’ve never seen anything like it… we’re seeing a new generation of nicotine addiction.”

“We as the health ministers can’t just sit by.”
