Original Note:
According to the CDC & FDA, U.S. teen tobacco use has hit a 25-year low, caused by a sharp decline in e-cigarette use. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/73/wr/mm7341a2.htm https://www.fda.gov/tobacco-products/ctp-newsroom/youth-tobacco-product-use-25-year-low-yet-disparities-persist https://www.newsweek.com/teen-vaping-tobacco-decline-25-year-low-1970946 Given that the data mentioned in the article don't include purchase age, it's safe to assume that the increase in e-cigarette sales is driven by adults. https://news.gallup.com/poll/648521/cigarette-smoking-rate-ties-year-low.aspx
