A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds 1,479 cases of vaping-related illness, with 33 deaths, as Juul announces it will be suspending sales of its fruity flavors.
A lot has happened since the first reports of the mysterious, deadly lung illness linked to vaping first trickled out of Wisconsin late July. One of the companies believed to be at the forefront of a spike in e-cigarette use, Juul, has suspended sales of its fruity flavors. Meanwhile, multiple states have begun enacting their own vaping bans, and First Lady Melania Trump has hosted a forum on vaping with teens at the White House.
As of this week, the CDC has officially given the illness a name: EVALI, which stands for e-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury. Doctors say the illness can resemble pneumonia, with common symptoms including severe cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, fever and chills. In the majority of cases, those who have experienced the illness felt a sudden onset of symptoms so severe that it led to hospitalization.
Although much of the focus in recent weeks has been on black market THC products , a new study this week from Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center published in the journal of Cancer Prevention Research found that e-cigarettes may carry longterm health risks of their own. “New research data suggests that even short-term e-cig use can cause cellular inflammation in never-smoker adults,” the authors conclude.
