The illness now has a name: EVALI, an acronym for 'e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury.'

It's unclear why some patients aren't able to recover fully. It could be that the patient resumes vaping, but health officials say there are several other possibilities.

That's the exact reason doctors gave Anna Ware of Burleson, Texas, when she had to be readmitted after she'd previously been hospitalized with the lung illness linked to vaping. She insisted she did not resume vaping, and instead was forced to quit all forms of smoking cold turkey.Since the collapsed lung, Ware has been to the emergency room several more times and been diagnosed with pleurisy, a condition in which the linings of the lungs become inflamed.

Because investigators are learning about the life-threatening lung injuries in real time as patients get sick and are hospitalized, the CDC released guidance Friday for clinicians on identifying, treating and following patients.
