    State and federal scientists have been investigating 215 vaping-related cases of severe lung illness
    Many of those sickened reported vaping cannabis
    Thursday, investigators reported find a vitamin E-derived oil in nearly all cannabis vapors linked to lung illnesses
    FDA scientists believe the chemical may be causing severe lung infections, state health officials involved in a briefing call told the Washington Post


    Federal and state scientists believe they may have discovered the chemical responsible for more than 200 vaping-related illnesses, the Washington Post reported Thursday.

    Nearly all of the samples of cannabis e-cigarette liquids tested contained the same oil derived from vitamin E, the Food and Drug Administration reportedly said in a briefing with state health officials on the call.

    According to previous reports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, many but not all of the 215 cases of vaping-related lung illnesses involved cannabis and bootleg products.

    FDA experts told the state officials that the oil, which has been associated with similar symptoms of severe lung infection was found in 10 of the 18 samples of cannabis e-cig liquids they tested.

    Update:

    Vaping kills a THIRD person and has left 450 people sick: CDC health officials warn the habit is behind a deadly 'new lung disease' that has spread to 33 states across the country

    Hopefully that's just dailymail bullshitting as usual. But I wouldn't be entirely surprised if it did create a new lung disease.

    Apparently the vitamin E acetate is like grease in your lungs, which allows pneumonia bacteria to infect
