In Oregon, the state Health Authority said theillness in the U.S. have climbed to 1,080 as of Oct. 3, up from 805 the week before, the CDC said.
The CDC on Friday said its investigation suggests,"THC products play a role in the outbreak." In a briefing with reporters, the agency said 77% of the people reported using products containing THC, the ingredient in marijuana that makes users high. Still, agency officials said more information is needed.
On Sept. 30, Texas chain H-E-B said it had immediately discontinued sales of e-cigarettes. Walmart, the world's largest retailer, said it would stop selling all e-cigarettes once existing inventory runs out,“Given the growing federal, state and local regulatory complexity and uncertainty regarding e-cigarettes, we plan to discontinue the sale of electronic nicotine delivery products at all Walmart and Sam’s Club U.S. locations,” the company said in a memo to local managers.
The 1,080 confirmed cases are from 48 states and one territory. The 19 deaths are from 19 states. The patients who died range in age from 13 to 75 years old, the CDC said. The median age is 23 years.The update comes as new data reveal the rate of vaping nicotine amongthFor its investigation, the FDA has collected more than 150 vaping product samples, according to Mitch Zeller, JD, director of the FDA Center for Tobacco Products.

Black market THC cartridges you forgot that in your headline . WeVapeWeVote
Well at least you got the right photo this time...Vaping is too generic a term, people will continue to get sick/die, you're part of the problem, Until its front page news that BM THC carts are the issue not nic vaping the numbers will rise.
27 people have supposedly died from illegal THC cartridges. The solution would be federally legalize marijuana, low tax rate and it would strangle the black market. Killing small business ecig shops will just create a NEW black market that wasn't needed before.
What WebMD should be saying, Warning: Do not buy or vape illicit black market THC cartridges, they are causing deaths due to oils in the e-liquid which are not meant to be vaped. If you vape, it's only safe to vape reputable e-liquids from reputable vape shops. Please tell others
Please THC related deaths! Warn of the danger of tainted THC and stop stigmatizing flavored nicotine vaping! WeVapeWeVote not a bot
