Photo: 123RFA new survey shows the numbers of teens taking up vaping is dropping - but advocates say older students are falling through the gaps. The Asthma and Respiratory Foundation has surveyed nearly 11,000 intermediate and high school students about vaping. That is of concern, and even year 9 to 11, almost 9 percent are vaping in the last seven days," Harding said. Meanwhile, the number of older students vaping was still rising - with 20 percent of year 12 students, and 26 percent of year 13 - aged between 15 and 18 - reporting vaping in the last week. She said it also cast light on inequality - the number of Māori students vaping every week was almost twice that of Pākehā.
