Australia’s nangheads and vapelords will have a harder time getting their fix after a record bust in Perth’s northeastern suburbs. A warehouse raided by Western Australia’s Health Department officials was storing 15 tonnes of vapes – that’s 300,000 units – and 10 tonnes of nangs. And if you’re wondering what a nang is, they’re a pressurised bulb of nitrous oxide that can be used for pain relief, whipping cream, inflating bike tyres – or getting a quick high. The state’s health minister Amber-Jade Sanderson applauded the seizure, saying that vapes can contain “the same harmful chemicals found in cleaning products, nail polish remover, weed killer, bug spray and paint stripper”. Tomorrow, state and territory Health ministers will receive advice on cracking down on vapes and closing loopholes in the black market after Federal Minister Mark Butler copped some criticism yesterday for his anti-vaping strategy’s slow start.
