As New Jersey vape shop owners decried lawmakers' efforts to ban the sale of flavored e-liquid last year, they often repeated the same claim: Our products aren't the cause of the mysterious lung illness sweeping the country.To get more news about Cheap Vape Deals, you can visit urvapin official website.

A new study from the Yale School of Public Health may vindicate them. Researchers found states with higher e-cigarette use and legal marijuana sales actually had fewer cases of vaping illness, EVALI, than their stricter counterparts."If e-cigarette or marijuana use per se drove this outbreak, areas with more engagement in those behaviors should show a higher EVALI prevalence," Abigail Friedman, the study's author, said in a statement. "This study finds the opposite result. Alongside geographic clusters of high EVALI prevalence states, these findings are more consistent with locally available e-liquids or additives driving the EVALI outbreak than a widely used, nationally-available product."

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention opened an investigation into the illness in 2019 and ultimately confirmed 2,800 cases and 68 deaths associated with vaping. But in February, the CDC also deemed a vitamin E acetate commonly found in illicit marijuana vapes as the main cause.

Officials had already taken steps to curtail vaping in New Jersey, passing a law banning the sale of flavored vaping products. Some lawmakers said they hoped the rule would keep vapes out of the hands of children (those under 21 were ineligible to purchase the products already).Next door in Pennsylvania, Gov. Wolf wisely saw this for what it was - the end result of prohibitionist policies on marijuana - and called for the legalization of marijuana to combat toxic black market products," Gregory Conley, president, American Vaping Association, said in a statement. "Regrettably, Gov. [Phil] Murphy and his staff ignored the illicit THC issue and instead used these illnesses and deaths to campaign for bans on legal nicotine products that have been shown to help adult smokers quit."

"We remain hopeful that studies like this will convince elected officials and Gov. Murphy that new policy is needed, as the current policy has only led to the shuttering of businesses and adult consumers purchasing online or from Pennsylvania and Delaware," Conley said.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announcedTrusted Source Thursday that it will take action to remove most unauthorized flavored e-cigarette cartridges from the market.To get more news about Best Vape Kits, you can visit univapo official website.

This would apply to mint, fruit, and dessert flavors, but not menthol or tobacco-flavored products. Also, it would apply only to flavored cartridges, not open tank systems.

This action is intended to strike a balance between protecting youth from the health risks of vaping - including nicotine addiction - and allowing adult smokers to use e-cigarettes as a way to quit combustible cigarettes.

"The enforcement policy we're issuing today confirms our commitment to dramatically limit children's access to certain flavored e-cigarette products we know are so appealing to them - so-called cartridge-based products that are both easy to use and easily concealable," said FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen M. HahnTrusted Source in the news releaseTrusted Source.Cartridge-based e-cigarettes have long been popular among minors, as have nontobacco flavors.

Data from the 2019 National Youth Tobacco SurveyTrusted Source show that more than 5 million U.S. middle and high school students reported using an e-cigarette within the last 30 days. Nearly 60 percent of high school students who vaped used cartridge-based JUUL products.

Other research shows that the most popular e-cigarette flavor among high school students was mint, followed by mango and fruit.

Last fall, in anticipation of an FDA crackdown on flavored e-cigarette products, JUUL took most of its flavors off the market, although it continued to sell mint and menthol products.

The FDA emphasized that this week's action is not a "ban" on these products. Instead, the agency is enforcing its existing authority to regulate e-cigarettes.

Since 2016, all e-cigarettes have been required to seek "premarket authorization" from the FDA before being sold in the United States.

So far, no e-cigarettes have this approval - so all products on the market "are considered illegally marketed and are subject to enforcement, at any time, in the FDA's discretion," the agency wrote in its release.

The FDA, though, is currently reviewing several premarket applications for flavored e-cigarette products. If any of those applications are approved, the products could be legally sold in the United States.
