'First Vape Death in the US' Recorded in Illinois
- WheelsAtLarge 7y agoInteresting, we have all gotten so worked up over vaping yet this is the first death attributed to it and it seems to be out of the ordinary. Yes, one death is one too many. Tobacco and alcohol are responsible for thousands of deaths every year. Those are the real problems. I'm not advocating that we should stop preventing people from getting addicted especially kids but the panic over vaping should be seen in the right perspective.
- bifrost 7y agoThis "report" is so speculative it should probably be ignored TBH. This almost sounds like an "adulterated" batch of "vape juice" or something rather than a technology related death. FWIW I'd trust a company like JUUL to put out a safe product over someone who makes the stuff in their back room...
