First and foremost – Vape is not a cigarette!
It is steam. So don't call it a cigarette. Read the definition again and see for yourself!
Second – The cause of the recent outbreak is THC cartridges. We can assume they are purchased illegally from the black market. THC is mixed with other chemicals such as vitamin E acetate. This is an oil-based substance and is toxic to the respiratory system.
The CDC, FDA, media, and both local and federal governments continue to spread misinformation. This has made people more afraid of vaping, which many people have not yet been exposed to. It is not right for them to ban vaping products outright.
Vaping is 95% safer than smoking, and that’s not just what we believe, it’s proven. You might say, “there’s research to the contrary…”, but that’s probably misinformation, coming from sources that don’t want or have any interest in smokers choosing a healthier lifestyle. Start by reading the vaping studies that are coming out of the US. Real-world experiences and results help push a country in a healthier direction.
I have lost many loved ones, directly or indirectly, because of cigarettes. When my brother passed away, he told me to quit smoking. I later found a safe method that helped me keep my promise to him. My current life is healthier thanks to vaping! I believe that is also what my mother wanted before she passed away.
Think about it… If only the government would take a tough line on cigarette manufacturers. Why don’t they do something? Nothing? Why? For money. Many corporations and organizations from top to bottom would suffer. They don’t do this because they care about their wife’s health. Traditional cigarettes kill 400,000 people a year. Why don’t they see this as a problem?
Hey, I feel sorry for the people who are affected by inhaling chemicals and THC that are making them sick, or worse, dying. But it’s not about vaping. I wish more people would do the research, pay attention, and make the right decisions. Including parents of young children. Be careful, people, it’s that simple.
