Residents have expressed alarm over the serious health risks associated with Sheesha use, especially in cafés that lack proper hygiene standards. A major concern is the improper disinfection of mouthpieces, which can lead to the spread of contagious diseases due to saliva transmission.
With the trend becoming increasingly common among young people, citizens are calling for strict monitoring and regulation of Sheesha cafés to protect public health and discourage underage access.
