Vaping brands arrived in New Zealand under the auspices of helping Kiwis quit smoking. They've also contributed to hooking an entirely new generation on nicotine, as vape stores have became ubiquitous.

Although vaping is believed to be less damaging then smoking, it still has repercussions for health, some of which are still being discovered. 

As New Zealand moves closer to its goals of a smokefree nation, are we trading the devil we know well for the demon we don't?

NZ Herald health reporter Emma Russell joins Damien to talk about the flavoured plumes of vapour enveloping Aotearoa.
