Gas stoves are great. When the power fails, we always relied on gas and still can cook. Instant heat, not picky about cooking ware, and not using a sole source of energy is important for this unstable world today.

It is necessary to prohibit not the use of gas, but to prohibit the dangerous use of gas!
If the gas stove is of good quality and the hood and ventilation are properly organized, then I don't see any health effects. And besides, a person will have a choice: gas or electricity.

Technically, gas stoves are always leaking gas, even when not in use. And most people forget to turn on the ventilation, not to mention even when they do, there is usually a microwave there which has weaker vents
