Officials identify Vitamin E Acetate as a 'strong culprit' in the vaping-related lung injuries that left thousands sick and 39 people dead, CDC says.
Officials have identified Vitamin E Acetate as a"strong culprit" in the vaping-related lung injuries that left thousands sick and 39 people dead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday.
Dr. Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the CDC, described the Vitamin E Acetate link as a"breakthrough" in the investigation, but cautioned that the news does not mean the investigation is over. "We are not talking about the Vitamin E capsules that people swallow," Schuchat said."This is a case of inhaled aerosol."
