@Adrian Hello, As far as I know
The number of deaths directly attributed to vaping is difficult to pinpoint exactly, but there have been several significant reports and investigations into vaping-related health issues. Here’s a summary of the situation:
U.S. Outbreak (2019-2020): During the outbreak of vaping-associated lung injury in 2019-2020, also known as EVALI (E-cigarette or Vaping Product Use-Associated Lung Injury), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported over 2,800 cases and 68 deaths linked to vaping. These cases were primarily associated with the use of vape products containing THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and counterfeit nicotine products.
Other countries have also reported cases of severe health issues related to vaping, but comprehensive global data on vaping-related deaths is limited. Many of these cases are associated with illicit or poorly manufactured products rather than regulated e-cigarettes.
Research on the long-term effects of vaping is still ongoing. While vaping is generally considered less harmful than smoking traditional cigarettes, the potential long-term health risks are not yet fully understood.
It is important to follow current guidelines and regulations on vaping and be aware of any updates from health authorities regarding its safety.
