Vaping-induced illness lands US teen in coma

Fiona from Henderson

Sadly, this story is one now of so many of the severe dangers of vaping!!
It shouldn't just be something that is happening in the U.S., because it's not.
This story should be a wake up call for the extreme dangers of vaping.
The unknown chemicals and additives are far more toxic and deadly than 'normal' cigarettes. I am not condoning smoking in any form, but in this instance, it's the lesser of two evils.
The second hand smoke from vaping is just as dangerous for the passer by as it is for the smoker of the said vape cigarette.
It's harder to walk around a huge cloud from the vape cigarette. We've all seen them escaping from car windows, pedestrians walking down the street, in the car parks in the mall - EVERYWHERE!!!
People are giving up smoking cigarettes to a nastier & more toxic option, and all under the misleading advertising of each of the e-cigarette companies that this is the healthier option to help people give up smoking - which is absolutely FALSE!!!
