State Reports More Cases Of Vaping-Related Illnesses

Associated Press

State officials are reporting more cases of vaping-related  breathing illnesses. 

The Ohio Department of Health says there are now 28 cases of a severe pulmonary illness, and 30 others are under investigation. The cases involve mostly males between 15- and 65-years of age.  The figures don't link the illnesses to the vaping of THC-related products.  Federal officials have reported more than one thousand cases nationwide.
