West Virginia's Vape Safety Act takes effect, targeting underage vaping with new labeling rules

A new West Virginia law that will impose restrictions on vape shops throughout the state will begin taking effect this week.

The Vape Safety Act is designed to help limit underage vaping and allow for more oversight on the products being sold.

The law gives the West Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control Administration more authority to regulate vape shops around the state.

The first part of the law will go into effect Thursday, which will mainly focus on the labeling of vapor products.
