September 27, 2019- Sales of marijuana vaping products are reportedly down as much as 60 percent in some states as public health officials try to find out what’s behind a mysterious ailment that has sickened and killed some e-cigarette users. State health officials in Oregon announced Thursday that a second state resident had died from a vaping-related lung illness.
That brings the national tally to 13, compared to the 12 fatalities announced earlier in the day by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, The Oregonian reports. Another 805 confirmed and probable cases have been identified in 46 states, the CDC said. Some 77 percent of people impacted by the outbreak have reported using products containing THC, the federal agency announced Friday. The exact cause of the illnesses remains unclear, but CDC officials advised people to stop using e-cigarette or vaping products, especially those that contain THC.
