CDC Says Illegal Vape Drugs, Not Vaping, Responsible For Rash Of Hospitalizations

FWIW: Rumors here in Colorado is that a rogue group (un regulated/taxed and not inspected, i.e., black market) is selling cannabis vape products (mostly THC) diluted with vitamin E acetate instead of the allowed diluents like MCT oil, etc. Vit E is for topical/ingestion use only and should never be vaped as it will cause a hard oily buildup in the lungs. The problem is that Vit E oil is very cheap in comparison to the allowed diluents.



These "rumors" are coming from a very good source and Colorado may be the origination point for these black market products.


Hope this is helpful.

As usual, sheeple consume things without giving a damn about the source and igreedients

THC is poison however you use it.

It's pretty obvious. Common sense would tell you it's street stuff otherwise we would have THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE suffering and dying from these symptoms.

“ Eighty percent of those patients reported the use of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component of cannabis, she said.”

And the other 20% lied because they don’t want their parents to know they get high.

Dr Dana Meaney-Delman is leading the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s investigation into the culprit behind at least five confirmed deaths and 450 reported cases of lung illness linked with use of the devices.

The agency is recommending that people refrain from the use of any electronic cigarette or vaping device until there is more conclusive evidence of a cause, she said in an interview.

“We’re trying to prevent any additional cases and deaths,” Meaney-Delman said.

She has reviewed data so far from 64 patients, including cases published on Friday in the New England Journal of Medicine as well as other reports. Eighty percent of those patients reported the use of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component of cannabis, she said.

The legal stuff will kill your shit faster then anything else .
I heard the cdc and gov agencies never real lie ever.

if you go onto dhgate and look up cartridges there are many counterfeits that people are buying, filling up and selling. There is no integrity in the black market.

Best thing to do?

Make your own pens.

It's so damn easy

64 cases? Such a low sample.

It’s another way to thin the herd.

Yeah, No. THC isn’t killing anyone.
