Illinois reports death from lung illness linked to vaping
- The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday it had identified 193 potential cases of severe lung illness tied to vaping in 22 states as of Aug. 22, including one adult in Illinois who died after being hospitalized.
E-cigarettes are generally thought to be safer than traditional cigarettes, which kill up to half of all lifetime users, according to the World Health Organization. But the long-term health effects of vaping are largely unknown. He said health agencies are trying to learn which specific vaping products were used and whether they were being used as intended or mixed with other substances.
Brian King, deputy director of research translation at the CDC’s smoking and health division, said it is possible there may have been earlier cases that health agencies had not identified.
