FROM THE CDC – E-cigarette Use, or Vaping, Practices and Characteristics Among Persons with Associated Lung Injury — Utah, April–October 2019

You can read the entire report HERE, but I looked at a few numbers and tried to better understand them.  Specifically the following numbers:

83 Total Patients
53 Total Patients Interviewed
49 Vaped & Used THC
17 Vaped & Used ONLY THC
35 Vaped & Used Nicotine
3 Vaped & Used ONLY Nicotine
32 Vaped & Used THC & Nicotine

Here is what I concluded:

  1. The issue is with THC (I think we all know this by now). Specifically the illicit, illegal, tainted, drug dealer kind. You know, the kind that NO ban is going to be able to fix. Yeah, those.
  2. Only 53 of the 83 patients were interviewed pointing to a very incompetent CDC.
  3. 53 were “interviewed” not tested. Pointing to, again,  a very incompetent CDC. God forbid there is ever a REAL public health emergency. I guess we can’t test to find out the REAL problem.
  4. 3 patients were afraid to get scolded by Mommy and Daddy and did not tell the truth which was made possible by the very incompetent CDC.
  5. Of the 53 patients “interviewed” 4 didn’t vape anything so we clearly need to ban EVERYTHING until we find out the cause of THAT problem.

My apologies if this post leads to the banning of everything.

If you are an adult smoker and want a substantially safer way to get your nicotine than that of a traditional tobacco cigarette.  Have a look at vaping.

If you are a current nicotine vaper and are concerned by what you’re hearing in the news, DO NO go back to smoking!!  The issue is not with nicotine vaping.

If you don’t smoke and don’t vape continue to do neither!!   Even though you may be VERY concerned by those mysterious 4 people in #5 above.  😉
