Youth Commission PSA Script- 5/21/2021
Introduction (Kevin, Sam, Issac)
"Hello, we are the Bakersfield Youth Commission, representatives for the youth of Bakersfield."
"Did you know that the CDC has reported that one in five high school students and one in twenty
middle school students currently use e-cigarette devices?"
Illnesses (Elizabeth Calley and Sanjna Mizar)
"This staggering statistic is incredibly dangerous, especially tight now. People that vape are 5-
times more likely to experience symptoms of COVID-19."
"Vaping also intensifies the effects of pneumonia, asthma, and valley fever, illnesses that are
very prevalent here in the Valley."
Myth-Busting (Gina Yum and Emily Bell)
"Well, I've heard that vaping is safe. Vapes don't contain nicotine, and they're safer than regular
cigarettes."
"Actually, that's not true. Vaping is more addictive than smoking traditional cigarettes because
of the nicotine salts in vape devices. One JUUL pod actually contains the same amount of
nicotine as twenty cigarettes."
Educational Attainment(Isaac Morgan and Aditya Kakarla)
2/3 of teachers say that students in their classes are affected by vaping in fact 80% of high
school students are exposed to e-cigarette adds. Vaping affects your memory and ability to
focus as well as increases irritability
Sports (Braedon Burrow and Kevin Dewey)
In affecting your school ability vaping also affects your athletic eligibility by damaging your
GPA(long version)Vaping effects your ability to focus in class and also on the field. Vaping
affects your ability to breath.
Conclusion (Samuel Baldivinos)
Talk about an anecdotal story about how it affected a classmates life, ability to focus and
impair your ability to play sports
