On Tuesday, one of the biggest vaping companies announced its plan to fight underage use of vape pens. Juul is pulling all of its flavored e-cigarette pods from stores.
The Food and Drug Administration was already expected to announce a ban on those flavored e-cigarettes later this week.
Juul officials say it is also shutting down all of its social media accounts.
