In 2017, an article titled "I was eventually pushed out of the Capital International Airport in a wheelchair" was screened, and the harmful "laughing gas" came into public view.
It is said that the Internet has a memory, but I don't think that memory is very good - it has only been less than 4 years, and it has emerged again?
Some time ago, a popular webcast was exposed "playing ballooning". Many people asked for science popularization at the bottom, naively asking: What is ballooning?
Briefly introduce the plot: The live webcast's surname is Qiu. On April 4, he said that Han had been addicted to "playing balloons", and also said that there were pictures and truth, and posted evidence. Han Mou in the picture looks ugly, lying in the middle of a bunch of balloons, and looks like he just sang a song "Calories":
The first sentence of getting up every day, give yourself a puff
In response, Han retorted on the spot, implying that Qiu was also "cheering up".
It is said that the feud between the two is still a series. As early as last June, "Drug Control Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security @ China Drug Control Online" named them and criticized the strange phenomenon of laughing gas becoming fashionable among young people.
So, what do you mean by "ballooning"?
Known: playing balloons=inhaling nitrous oxide, nitrous oxide=new drugs;
Can get: playing balloons=taking drugs and smashing children!
Nitrous oxide, whose scientific name is nitrous oxide, was discovered by British chemist Humphrey David at the end of the 17th century. It is colorless and slightly sweet. Inhalation of it will bring temporary pleasure and permanent damage to the nervous system.
At the end of the 17th century, everyone knew the level of scientific research. People only found the happiness it brought, but did not understand the side effects. So many European nobles took it to "cheer up", help help, and become mentally disabled.
No way, who can make laughing gas stronger than marijuana addiction!
Later, the analgesic effect of nitrous oxide made it stand firm in the medical field. As an anesthetic for surgery, it often appears in the hands of dentists. Later, laughing gas became a food additive, and its effect was outstanding in cake decoration, coffee making and other occasions where light cream was needed.
Due to the demand for gas from dental clinics, medical institutions, dessert stores and coffee shops, it was extremely easy to buy nitrous oxide in the past, and even the relevant qualifications were not required. Instead, it could be ordered directly from the factory, which was also cheap in large quantities.
You can even place an order directly on a treasure.
After being exposed, the difficulty of buying and selling laughing gas has increased slightly. Please note that it is only "slightly". At most, it has changed from "publicity" to "caution". Those things that should not be sold are still in circulation.
Merchants changed the name of "laughing gas" and sold it under the names of "butter gas bomb", "butter airbag", "butter consumables", etc. Some online shopping platforms simply block the search of the keyword "butter gas bomb", and do not take related products off the shelves.
When I was writing this article, I went to a treasure to search. The buyer interaction of related products is as follows. It can be seen that there are still some people who don't give up
Later, I went to find the relevant news. Mom, it can only be described in four words - "shocking"!
At present, the news that four years ago "female international students were paralyzed after inhaling nitrous oxide and returned to China in a wheelchair" has failed to serve as a warning. There are many cases of new generation young people inhaling nitrous oxide in order to seek stimulation.
On April 28, 2021, in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, two men and one woman hid in the community and around the school to smoke and sell laughing gas and were detained after being seized by the police.
On April 13, 2021, in Yueyang, Hunan Province, the police arrested 6 people who illegally sold laughing gas and seized 400 liters of laughing gas.
In April 2021, several students from the School of Continuing Education of Ningbo Institute of Technology of Zhejiang University stored two boxes of laughing gas in the dormitory and were punished.
According to @ Pengpai's news report, people in the school said that the nitrous oxide was not opened when they found it, and they did not call the police because they did not catch the smoking scene. Students said that the nitrous oxide was used for baking.
Going forward, at the beginning of this year, it was reported in the program "Today's Talk, Laughing Gas or Poison Gas" that Xiaoliu, a college student in Hangzhou, was paralyzed because of laughing gas.
At that time, Xiao Liu was only 19 years old.
In the program, experts in neurology and medicine said that Xiao Liu's disease was almost incurable and was likely to be disabled for life. Experts also said that since 2017, their hospital has received many patients with the same experience as Xiao Liu, all of whom are about 20 years old
In China, where drug control is so strong, why is laughter so arrogant? Mainly because it has not been included in the drug category. Although the harm of inhaling laughing gas is no less than drug abuse, it is still not called drug abuse, but only "illegal use of dangerous substances".
However, don't think about edging and drilling holes. In Today's Statement, Qu Xinjiu, a professor from China University of Political Science and Law, said:
The widely recognized list of drugs is not closed. As long as they can be included in mental and narcotic drugs, and can make people addicted, causing damage to human physical and mental health, they can be treated as drugs.
In the consciousness of those young people who "play ballooning", laughing gas is a "symbol of status". Have you played? I'm ashamed to say hello to my friends if I haven't played before. Those who have played can also be divided into three or six or nine grades. Small cans are not good enough, but big cans are good enough. With the negative guidance of some online celebrities, today's chaos has come into being!
Again, the law is just the bottom line of morality. Even if laughing gas is not a drug in the legal level, its harm cannot be ignored!
Young people, don't be paralyzed for ten seconds.
