I’m at home with 38.6’c fever, so can respond quickly
That's how I get sick all the time. Grandkids. for sure beware of kids
That's how everybody gets sick ... kids are dangerous ... they should only be accessible in registered institutions, behind blacked out windows, with no advertising.
Not sure if this is still true, but it sounds like if you get a doctors form saying that vaping is helping you quit smoking, the government may allow you more access to supplies.

- "Finland– Regulated with TDP: As with many other European countries, Finland has decided that e-cigarettes and vapor products must have a medical license to be sold or distributed if they contain nicotine. No nicotine versions are unregulated. Citizens can order online and have cartridges or bottles of nicotine-containing fluid of less than 10mg delivered and they are purchased from TDP certified UA approved providers. See TDP info above."
This is from the Finnish customs, as how they regulate vape products under the tobacco law, they don’t come under any other law here.
