Does Raising The 'Vaping Age' Actually Lead To An Increase In Teen Smoking?

I'm never one to look at one study and say "well, there's all the proof you need"... so while interesting, take it with a grain of salt.

Via The Daily Caller;
Raising the vaping age actually leads to an increase in teen smoking, according to a new study from Cornell University.

Published in Preventative Medicine, Weill Cornell Medicine investigators found an 11.7 percent increase in teen cigarette use after states introduced new age restrictions for e-cigarettes between 2007 and 2013.

The study backs up research published in 2015  showing the drive to ban the under 18s from buying and using e-cigarettes had the exact opposite effect that policy makers intended.

Smoking rates among 12-17-year-olds actually rose in states that banned e-cigarette sales to minors, according to the study by Abigail Friedman of the Yale School of Public Health, published in the Journal of Health Economics.
