Wisconsin police last month broke up what they call one of the country's largest illegal vaping manufacturing businesses. Officials arrested two brothers, and seized mason jars and 35,000 vaping cartridges, all full THC oil. WPR
using e-cigarettes or other vaping products is rising, and they're still trying to figure out why. It's led to plenty of warnings about e-cigarettes and put a spotlight on illegal vaping operations.
In a state where marijuana is still illegal, Beth says they found Mason jars full of THC oil plus thousands of empty cartridges and small colorful boxes that look like they were made for candy with names such as Linwood Lemonade Clear and Razzle Dazzle Clear. That's the illegal end of it, but legal e-cigarette use has been on the rise all around the country. People inhale the aerosol created when the e-cigarette devices heat up liquid infused with nicotine or other substances. In some states, it's also legal to vape using cartridges filled with THC — the"get high" ingredient of marijuana.
There haven't been any deaths in Wisconsin, but there have been 69 cases of vaping-related lung conditions. John Meiman, the chief medical officer at the Wisconsin Health Department, says young adults and teenagers make up most of the state's cases."The main takeaway is a large number of patients in Wisconsin report using THC vaping products, particularly pre-filled cartridges," Meiman says.
"And I own a distribution business, too, for vaping," he says."You have to keep up with it because anything could happen. They could ban it, you know."
