The novel coronavirus has been affected by some news reports from Tobacco Control, and some state government departments have already issued relevant measures, namely, implementing a number of restrictive measures to local sales of peppermint cigarettes.

At the same time, other parts of the United States began to restrict the sale of mint tobacco products. In this regard, some analysts pointed out that peppermint tobacco products are more likely to attract young people's consumption, but also more difficult to make them quit smoking.

In fact, as early as 2017, parliaments in Minneapolis and other places in the United States passed new restrictive measures by voting to regulate the sales of mint tobacco products and limit their sales to tobacco and alcohol stores only for adults.
