新西兰公共卫生协会反对政府批准Snus和尼古丁邮袋,理由是青少年上瘾的风险和长期安全证据的缺乏。 New Zealand's Public Health Association opposes government approval of snus and nicotine pouches, citing youth addiction risks and lack of long-term safety evidence.

新西兰公共卫生协会敦促政府禁止销售口服尼古丁和烟草产品, The Public Health Association of New Zealand is urging the government to block the sale of oral nicotine and tobacco products like snus and nicotine pouches, despite Cabinet’s 2024 agreement to allow them under strict rules. PHANZ警告没有足够的证据证明他们戒烟的长期安全或效果, 并担心他们可能会增加年轻人的尼古丁上瘾, 特别是在毛利人和处境不利的社区。 PHANZ warns there’s insufficient evidence on their long-term safety or effectiveness for quitting smoking and fears they could increase youth nicotine addiction, especially among Māori and disadvantaged communities. 该团体强调,用其他尼古丁产品取代吸烟不会促进公众健康,并可能破坏新西兰减少烟草伤害和抵制工业影响力的国际承诺。 The group stresses that replacing smoking with other nicotine products doesn’t advance public health and could undermine New Zealand’s international commitments to reduce tobacco harm and resist industry influence.
