Did a Canadian Teen Get Popcorn Lung from Vaping E-Juice?
The bottom line here is that there isn’t enough evidence to call this case popcorn lung, and the doctors’ decision to “postulate” that it was popcorn lung was ill considered. The lung injuries that the CDC groups together as EVALI have a broad set of features, and the victims have appeared to suffer from a variety of different kinds of injury or disease. This case is likely just one more variation.
MEDIA FINALLY EXPOSED BY MANIPULATING YOU THE CONSUMER!!!!
Have a look at this video below....Ben Camerillo a local man in Amarillo Texas speaks out about what happened to him when diagnosed with vaping lung illness. For 4 weeks now the US Media has been manipulating YOU spreading FEAR, MISINFORMATION, MANIPULATION driving YOU back to smoking combustible cigarettes. This is a CLEAR example that YOU must not take what you see and hear as the complete facts. Regulated e-liquids sold here at Wicks & Wires Vape Shoppe are produced in Pharma Grade Labs and contain NO THC or VITAMIN E ACETATE.
The HYSTERIA by the media outlets are LYING TO YOU.

CIGARETTES ARE OUT, VAPING IS IN
“These products will likely be at least 95 per cent less hazardous [than cigarettes] just based on what we know,” said David Sweanor, a Canadian lawyer and professor at the University of Ottawa who focuses on public health. “Cigarettes are just so incredibly deadly,” he added.
Our Industry wants to know because we care about public safety why does this Doctor not share the same opinion?
"London, Ont.'s medical officer of health says he won't give in to vaping industry demands that he release the name of the brand used by a high school student who was on life-support after using a vaping device, the first such reported illness linked to the practice in Canada. "
A vaping ban would be hysteria masquerading as prudence.
Most of what is known about vaping suggests it’s saving lives. A randomized controlled trial in Britain’s National Health Service found that people offered vaping as a replacement for smoking were twice as likely to quit successfully as those given traditional nicotine-replacement therapy. I myself know at least a half-dozen heavy smokers who have kicked the habit thanks to vaping.
Public Health Expert On E-cigarette Panic
Researchers are working hard to determine the cause of more than 500 reported cases of lung illness affecting e-cigarette users. But even before this outbreak, e-cigarettes divided the medical community. Public Health England describes e-cigarettes as "at least 95% less harmful than tobacco cigarettes" – a claim New York University professor David Abrams agrees with. Abrams tells "CBS This Morning" Tony Dokoupil why he's concerned about what the current panic about e-cigarette safety could mean for public health.
E-cigarette bans are 'a tremendous overreaction' to vaping-related illnesses, says doctor.
For the first time in Canada, there's a case linking severe lung disease to vaping.
Public health officials in London, Ont., say that a high school-aged student recently fell ill and was put on life support after using a vaping device.
It comes at a time when respiratory illnesses related to e-cigarette products are sharply on the rise — and as various jurisdictions are struggling to get a handle on the problem.
In the U.S., seven people have died from vaping-related illnesses. That has prompted New York state and Michigan to ban flavoured e-cigarette products. India just announced it would be banning e-cigarettes altogether.
But some doctors say authorities are snuffing out the wrong culprit.
The emotional and irrational hysteria in the US about the “vaping-related” (or cannabis-related?) lung disease that goes far beyond confirmation bias.
I have been following the recent developments and announcements in the US on the serious, acute cases of respiratory failure which have been presented as “vaping related”. It would not be a hyperbole to characterize the reactions, announcements and statements of some authorities, regulators and scientists as hysterical. There is no doubt that they are emotional, inaccurate and without any scientific and epidemiological basis.
4 Years later and we are still fighting to save the Vape Industry!!
While this video is 4 years old this presentation still holds true to present day. The recent Flavor Bans in the United States of America and the hysteria media across North America has nothing to do with Lung Illnesses due to REGULATED E-Liquid products but rather BLACK MARKET THC liquids. Why blame it all on Vaping? Why are proven medically studied Regulated E-liquids being blamed for it all?
An article by the Washington Post says "A vaping ban would be hysteria masquerading as prudence."
At this point, the best information suggests that a recent spate of deaths from a vaping-related lung disease — six at last report — had little or nothing to do with legal e-cigarettes. Rather, the deaths, and more than 300 confirmed cases of the disease in dozens of states, seem to be linked to illegal cartridges, mostly using marijuana derivatives that had been emulsified with vitamin E acetate, according to Food and Drug Administration investigators. The FDA has warned against using it for inhalation, and it isn’t used in legally manufactured e-cigarettes.
Teenager hospitalized after vaping with THC: "My lungs are like a 70-year-old's"
Have a read at this article from CBS where Adam Hergenreder, of Gurnee, Illinois has been hospitalized since last week. Hergenreder said he vaped with THC, the primary ingredient of marijuana. "I got it off a drug dealer."
