Is it time to ban vaping? - Fort Bend Owl - 09-05-2019 02:53 PM
https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2019/09/05/contaminant-found-vaping-products-linked-deadly-lung-illnesses-state-federal-labs-show/
The stuff is just so dangerous. We barely know anything about it yet, but what we do know is suggesting this stuff will seriously hurt your body way quicker than cigarettes. My sister's daughter-in-law is one of the young women who has had some lung issues which likely is from her vaping. She's not as bad off as some, but she did have to stay in the hospital for almost a week while they tried to figure out what was causing her breathing issues. She knows she's never vaping again.

I understand that a single pod is many times more potent than a whole pack of cigarettes when it comes to nicotine concentration.

nicotine is the addictive agent that introduces all the other chems....it's the carcinogens that kills cells or opens up the cancer gene...
where's Mach and his Juul cods when you need him...NYSE:MO - Altria bought them out some time ago...down ~15% over the past 6 mos.....sweet dividend though with a marginal PE....
they're now packaging thc levels and chemicals that I wouldn't consider vaping in any version of sanity....much less any version that is nicotine based...
disclaimer: 420 is only 1.2 hrs. away...is quite safe, non-addictive, and healthy for the belly and mind if you know the 'source'...
blame the stupid and propaganda for what you are now seeing on the streets....

I didn't read the link you posted but I heard a report saying that they've found like metal shards in the vaping juice and it was doing more damage to lungs than cigarettes...

It's time to ban tobacco.

At the least it should be prohibited for anyone under 21.

Nope.
People need to start taking responsibility for their own actions. If you are over 18 and you want to vape, smoke, drink, do drugs, skinny dip, ride without a helmet, drive without a seat belt, play russian roulette etc... then have have at it as along as you don't bother anyone else.

But isnt a pod enough to be like smoking many packs of cigarettes? Mach was confusing the "pod" with one fill of the vape pipe.
So if someone was a pack a day smoker they are getting 3/5 to 4/5 less nicotine if the pod on avg last 3 to 5 days
About 8 months ago I talked my son into going back to the nasty pouches that he puts in his mouth and stop vaping. I hate it but the tobacco we know about.
Quote:3-5 days
Most refillable pods last 3-5 days, although that approximation depends on how often you vape. An important aspect is knowing the signs of needing to refill your pod. Two warning signs that you need to change your pod is a reduction in flavor and a reduction in vapor emitted from your pod.Dec 22, 2017
Quote: One JUUL pod contains 20 cigarettes worth of nicotine.
The amount of nicotine in one standard JUUL cartridge is roughly equal to the amount of nicotine in a pack of cigarettes, or about 200 puffs

Universal health background checks before you buy vaping products.

Red flag laws for those that have used hookahs

I'm not for prohibition in any form but what tobacco companies have done with additives should be criminal.
Swedish style snus and "clean" cigarettes like American Spirits should be promoted for those who enjoy tobacco.

This.
Ban banning ****. People should be free to be as dangerous to their own bodies as they choose.
I quit smoking weed after 20 + years of it because I had become so detached after - surprise - the cartridges came into my life. With thc content of over 90% it was no wonder I couldn't function anymore.
I still eat mushrooms fairly regularly and I will till I die. I don't go anywhere when I do and hang out in the backyard. No threat to anyone. I'll also take DMT or Ayahuasca if given the opportunity. Again, only when in a safe place.
Freedom is a beautiful thing and should be protected at all costs when it doesn't infringe on anyone else.

I’ve looked into it, my son is waaaay deep on this crap. Hurts me.
1 “Juule” is basically the equivalent of 2 packs of smokes. Not the tar, but the nicotine.
Not even to mention the add-on THC oils and other schit.
Good news is he’s trying to get rid of it, running and swimming again.
We don’t have a clue what this crap does or can do.
We don’t know what we don’t know.

No private sales or hand me downs. Vaping kills.
Good call!
