CDC: Vitamin E Acetate is probably what’s killing Cannabis Vapers

Note: This appears to apply to exclusively marijuana vapers, where the problem seems to reside, and AFAIK Vitamin E Acetate is not used in nicotine vape.
Because the industry is new, mistakes are going to be made. Like many chemicals, Vitamine E Acetate is fine on your skin, like in a lotion, but incinerating it and inhaling it into your lungs, where it lingers, is something else entirely.
Scary thing is, there’s probably a shit-ton of it still floating around and I SERIOUSLY doubt manufacturer or suppliers will destroy their stocks.
They will sell it very cheaply.
Look for sales with very low prices.
They will do this and the non-sociopaths among them will justify it to themselves that the “CDC don’t know shit.”
Be warned.
And expect lawsuits! You know an industry has arrived when there is class action!
