At this point we don’t know what is causing the illnesses “associated” with vaping. We don’t know if it’s e-juice for nicotine devices, nicotine cartridges or pods, marijuana cartridges or pods, or whether it’s the oils or flavorings.
It’s not very comforting to see our elected leaders jump on banning vaping or flavors or anything without knowing one iota about the facts.
Worse is those leaders completely neglected the ramifications and unintended consequences of their actions. Without knowing anything, it’s very possible that these mindless reactions could have much worse results than the original problem.
And keep in mind that a few governors (OR, WA, MA) have robust regulatory systems available to them to address issues like this. Ignoring their own systems is silly.
