: 重点翻译：新西兰政府预计在2022年提出，
: 立法后，在2027年开始施行的法律，
: 从2027年起，14岁以下的所有国民，
: 将“一生”被禁止购买香菸或菸草制品。
: 健康部长 Ayesha Verrall 表示：
: “我们要确保年轻人们不会尝试开始抽菸。”
: 目前新西兰的成人抽菸率大约 13％，十年前则是 18％。
: 原文：
: New Zealand will ban the sale of tobacco to its next generation, in a bid to
: eventually phase out smoking.
: Anyone born after 2008 will not be able to buy cigarettes or tobacco product
s
: in their lifetime, under a law expected to be enacted next year.
: "We want to make sure young people never start smoking," Health Minister Dr
: Ayesha Verall said.
: The move is part of a sweeping crackdown on smoking announced by New
: Zealand's health ministry on Thursday.
: Doctors and other health experts in the country have welcomed the
: "world-leading" reforms which will reduce access to tobacco and restrict
: nicotine levels in cigarettes.
: "It will help people quit or switch to less harmful products, and make it
: much less likely that young people get addicted to nicotine," said Prof Jane
t
: Hook from the University of Otago.
: New Zealand is determined to achieve a national goal of reducing its nationa
l
: smoking rate to 5% by 2025, with the aim of eventually eliminating it
: altogether.
: Currently, about 13% of New Zealand adults smoke, down from 18% about a
: decade ago. But the rate is much higher - about 31%- among the indigenous
: Maori population who also suffer a higher rate of disease and death.
: New Zealand's health ministry says smoking causes one in four cancers and
: remains the leading cause of preventable death for its five million strong
: population. The industry has been the target of legislators for more than a
: decade now.
: As part of the crackdown announced on Thursday, the government also
: introduced major tobacco controls, including significantly restricting where
: cigarettes can be sold to remove them from supermarkets and corner stores.
: The number of shops authorised to sell cigarettes will be drastically reduce
d
: to under 500 from about 8,000 now, officials say.
: In recent years, vaping - smoking e-cigarettes which produce a vapour that
: also delivers nicotine - has become far more popular among younger
: generations than cigarettes.
: New Zealand health authorities warn however, that vaping is not harmless.
: Researchers have found hazardous, cancer-causing agents in e-cigarette
: liquids as well.
: But in 2017 the country adopted vaping as a pathway to help smokers quit
: tobacco.
这只解决了表面问题而已，但更深的问题还是无解，甚至有可能产生更多问题
好，你说未来世代将终生没有机会合法买菸
那他不会请可以合法买菸的人帮他买不就好了？
了不起他不要在外面抽，在家里抽，请问这要怎么抓？难不成新西兰警方要为了这个戒严
吗？
再来，未来世代终生不能买菸，但旁边却有可以合法买菸的人，这会导致想尝试抽烟的人
会不平衡觉得“凭什么为什么我不能合法买菸，年纪大我很多的人就可以？”
未来世代的人就会诞生所谓的地下私菸，跟毒品一样的在交易
所以问题真的解决了吗？没有。
大家看到是先进国家推的政策就高潮了
先进国家也是会有天真的政策好吗
