A sixth person died from vaping-related lung disease. Here's what you need to know...
As of Friday (2019/09/06), there have been more than 450 cases of lung illness associated with using e-cigarettes reported to the CDC across 33 states and the US Virgin Islands.
The federal investigation into the link between vaping and severe lung illnesses is ongoing and has not identified a specific cause, but all reported cases have indicated the use of e-cigarette products.
Vitamin E acetate is now "a key focus" of the investigations into the illnesses. Some of the products that have been found to contain vitamin E acetate are candy-flavored vapes.
The Centers for Disease Control says e-cigarettes should never be used by youth, young adults, pregnant women or adults who do not currently use tobacco products. People should consider not using e-cigarette products and people who do should monitor themselves for symptoms.
Tuesday (2019/09/10), the American Lung Association warned that "e-cigarettes are not safe" and can cause irreversible lung damage and disease.
New York State's Governor Cuomo wants to ban flavored e-cigarettes and said in a statement Monday (2019/09/09) that he will advance new legislation to do so. Michigan has already passed a similar law.
Wake up, people! E-cigarettes and "Vaping" are NOT safe!
