Hello world! Welcome to Vaping Unplugged Podcast with the World Vapers’ Alliance. In today’s special episode in German, we discuss vaping in Austria with our special guest Gerald Loacker, a Member of the Austrian Parliament. MP Loacker and Michael are talking about the current situation of harm reduction in Austria and the lack of awareness of the life-saving potential of less harmful alternatives in politics. The threats from the upcoming EU legislation for Member States are also discussed. You will also find out why Member States should push back against flavour bans and higher taxation and follow the Swedish example of progressive harm reduction policies instead. The episode is hosted by Michael Landl, Director of the World Vapers' Alliance.Follow World Vapers’ Alliance & stay tuned for the next episode:Twitter: https://twitter.com/vapers_allianceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/vapers_alliance/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WVAlliance
