Here on The West Live, we’ve covered the rise and dangers of vaping extensively over the last year or so.

New studies and research are happening around the issue, which has taken off with kids, and it’s revealing just how harmful it is.

And now, the state government is doing something about it - in a nation first, teachers in WA will be given the ok to shock their students with graphic details of the harm caused by vaping.

Something like this was done with smoking, so could it work with vaping? Cancer Council WA Cancer prevention research director, Melissa Ledger joins Ben to discuss.
