A new federal report shows vaping rates among U.S. teenagers fell dramatically this year, especially among middle school students.
The recent vaping deaths are bad. The long term toll will be even worse
“As long as any flavored e-cigarettes are left on the market, kids will get their hands on them and we will not solve this crisis,”The national survey is conducted at schools each year by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and usually involves about 20,000 middle and high school students. It asks students if they had used any vaping or traditional tobacco products in the previous month. The survey was cut short this year as schools closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s possible that some of the heightened awareness could have influenced decline in use,” King said. By year’s end, more than 2,600 illnesses and close to 60 deaths were reported. Most of those who got sick said they vaped , the ingredient that produces a high in marijuana. CDC officials gradually focused their investigation on black market THC cartridges, and on a chemical compound called vitamin E acetate that had been added to illicit THC vaping liquids.
