為進(jìn)一步保護(hù)未成年人免受電子煙侵害，國家煙草專賣局、國家市場監(jiān)督管理總局11月1日對(duì)外發(fā)布通告要求，不得向未成年人銷售電子煙，不得通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)銷售電子煙，不得通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)發(fā)布電子煙廣告。

China called on companies and e-commerce platforms to stop selling e-cigarettes online, in a bid to curb underage vaping as global health authorities raise alarms about its potential effect on public health.

在全球衛(wèi)生部門紛紛就電子煙對(duì)公眾健康的潛在影響發(fā)出警告之際，中國要求企業(yè)和電商平臺(tái)停止在網(wǎng)上銷售電子煙，以遏制未成年人吸食電子煙。

vape[ve?p]：v.吸電子煙

電子煙是一種特殊的煙草產(chǎn)品，一般由煙油和煙具組成。煙油主要由煙堿（尼古?。┲瞥刹⑼ㄟ^電子煙具將尼古丁以及各類添加劑霧化后供消費(fèi)者吸食。

The move by Chinese regulators comes roughly three months after a ban on sales of e-cigarettes to those under 18. Even as global awareness of the dangers of vaping increases, authorities in China said minors are still buying e-cigarettes online.

中國監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)是在發(fā)布禁止向18歲以下未成年人出售電子煙的通告大約三個(gè)月后采取這一行動(dòng)的。中國有關(guān)部門表示，在全球?qū)﹄娮訜熚：Φ恼J(rèn)識(shí)提高的同時(shí)，仍然有未成年人通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)購買電子煙。

China’s tobacco and market regulators ordered companies and individuals making or selling vaping products to close down their sales websites and mobile apps and e-commerce platforms to shut e-cigarette shops and remove all products. It also called for the withdrawal of online e-cigarette ads.

中國的煙草和市場監(jiān)管部門敦促電子煙生產(chǎn)、銷售企業(yè)或個(gè)人及時(shí)關(guān)閉電子煙互聯(lián)網(wǎng)銷售網(wǎng)站或客戶端；敦促電商平臺(tái)及時(shí)關(guān)閉電子煙店鋪，并將電子煙產(chǎn)品及時(shí)下架。監(jiān)管部門還要求撤回通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)發(fā)布的電子煙廣告。

“Some companies are blindly pursuing economic interests by publicizing, promoting and selling e-cigarettes on the internet, which poses a huge threat to the health of minors,” said a notice published Friday by tobacco regulator State Tobacco Monopoly Administration and the State Administration of Market Regulation, which oversees drug safety.

中國國家煙草專賣局和國家市場監(jiān)督管理總局11月1日發(fā)布的一份通告說：“有電子煙企業(yè)為盲目追求經(jīng)濟(jì)利益，通過互聯(lián)網(wǎng)大肆宣傳、推廣和售賣電子煙，對(duì)未成年人身心健康造成巨大威脅?！?/p>

The measure comes after other countries including the US have heightened regulatory scrutiny on the e-cigarette industry and opened investigations into some of the companies selling vaping products.

在此之前，包括美國在內(nèi)的其他一些國家已經(jīng)加強(qiáng)了對(duì)電子煙行業(yè)的監(jiān)管審查，并對(duì)一些銷售電子煙產(chǎn)品的企業(yè)展開了調(diào)查。

China has more than 300 million smokers and is the world’s largest producer and consumer of tobacco products, according to the World Health Organization. The number of vapers in China is relatively small, however. A report published in September by Beijing’s Tsinghua University tallied up roughly 7.4 million vapers in 2017, or about 0.5% of its population.

世界衛(wèi)生組織稱，中國有3億多煙民，是全球最大的煙草生產(chǎn)國和消費(fèi)國。不過，中國的電子煙消費(fèi)人數(shù)相對(duì)較少。據(jù)清華大學(xué)9月發(fā)布的一份報(bào)告估計(jì)，2017年中國電子煙消費(fèi)人數(shù)為740萬人，約占總?cè)丝诘?.5%。

China’s vaping market is unregulated and the product quality uneven, with a large number of products posing serious quality and safety hazards, the tobacco regulator said on its website.

中國的電子煙市場缺乏監(jiān)管，產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量參差不齊。中國煙草監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)在其網(wǎng)站上稱，不少產(chǎn)品存在嚴(yán)重的質(zhì)量安全隱患。

Many e-cigarette companies target young people, misleading them with ads suggesting that their products are harmless aids to wean people off smoking, the regulator said. Many portray e-cigarettes as fashionable and trendy to attract minors, it added.

監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)表示，很多電子煙企業(yè)以年輕人為目標(biāo)，用“幫助戒煙”“健康無害”等廣告誤導(dǎo)他們。此外，很多電子煙企業(yè)將電子煙標(biāo)榜為“時(shí)尚”“潮流”的代表以吸引年輕人。

The State Tobacco Monopoly Administration started drafting national standards for the vaping industry in October 2017. They are still awaiting approval.

國家煙草專賣局于2017年10月開始起草電子煙行業(yè)的國家標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，仍在等待批準(zhǔn)。

In the US, vaping-associated lung illnesses have risen to a cumulative 1,888 cases across 49 states, with 37 reported deaths, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday. Most of those cases have been linked to vaping products containing THC, the psychoactive chemical in marijuana.

美國疾病控制與預(yù)防中心10月31日表示，在美國的49個(gè)州，與電子煙有關(guān)的肺部疾病已累計(jì)上升至1888例，其中37人死亡。這些病例多與含有四氫大麻酚的電子煙產(chǎn)品有關(guān)，四氫大麻酚是大麻中的精神活性化學(xué)物質(zhì)。

Several states and cities in the US have set temporary bans on the sale of flavored e-cigarette and vaping products, arguing that it will help stem a rise in e-cigarette use among minors.

美國幾個(gè)州和城市已經(jīng)暫時(shí)禁止銷售調(diào)味電子煙和電子煙產(chǎn)品，稱這將有助于遏制未成年人吸食電子煙的增長勢(shì)頭。
