The survey also found that current vaping among 18-to-24-year-olds fell from a high of 20.6% in 2022–23 to 14%, while daily vaping remained stable across all age groups. This differed from previous surveys which reported rising vaping rates.

That's good to see, it's already concerningly normalised in a couple of my social circles.

Same here, and this is with mid-30s who should know better. One has just quit though (maybe due to having children recently) so I hope the others will follow his lead.
