Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:

The past few weeks have been horrific for the approximately 400 victims (and families) poisoned by illicit TCH-vaping products—some fatally. It’s a real tragedy and certainly a public health emergency. But these are not the only victims; tens of millions of people who rely on traditional nicotine-vaping products as a lifeline to quit smoking (or to stay quit) now find access to these products threatened, or in the case of the state of Michigan, revoked, restricted, denied.

In this live edition of RegWatch Dr. Siegel evaluates FDA, CDC and non-profit health groups’ lack of clarity regarding the nature of the emergency; an emergency which should have first, and only, been described as a product tampering or tainted product crisis. Instead, health officials warned the public to stop using e-cigarettes; maligning traditional nicotine-vaping and obscuring the truth.

What caused these illnesses? And, why does it appear the CDC is doing everything in its power to protect the illicit THC-vape trade while deflecting blame onto the legal, retail vaping industry?

ATTENTION MANUFACTURES & DISTROS!

Do you have liquid sitting that hasn’t moved and want to do a good deed this year?

We are collecting e-liquid to be distributed to addiction counseling centers in California via a program designed to offer vaping as a cigarette alternative to those being admitted for addiction issues.

We truly believe in this work and would hope you would want to help us out.

Fr Jack Kearney is leading this effort and if you want to know more about the program please watch the last episode of the Smoker’s Show where we discuss this in detail.

Innokin is providing starter kits.

You can help out HERE: https://www.helpasmokerinrecovery.org/

Please include your email and an estimated value of your products so that we can include it in your letter for the IRS. The project is under the auspices of the Family Intervention Center & Services (FICS), a 501-c-3 non profit charity.

Spread the word & make a difference.  Any amount or nicotine strength is welcome, although higher nicotine levels are preferred.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Phil,

Just wanted to say thank you for the Innokin Adept kit. It’s a real treat to use! The simplicity of the design is perfect for when I’m going out and want to take along a no-fuss, durable device that nevertheless does not sacrifice performance.

Please give my thanks to Dimitris also. You both did a great job with the design of this mod and tank, and it is something I’ll enjoy using for years to come.

Many Thanks,

Karen

Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:

Weeks prior to the first cases of vaping-related lung illness hitting the news, RegWatch conducted an exclusive interview with Martin Dockrell the Tobacco Programme Lead at Public Health England.
PHE is the UK’s top health protection agency and employs 5,000 staff who are mostly scientists, researchers, and public health professionals. Public Health England is a beacon of sound science and for the past 5-years has a been a strong advocate for the use of e-cigarettes as a tool to stop smoking.

While the recent deaths and illnesses associated with vaping are tragic, the confounding of traditional nicotine-vaping with illicit black-market THC-vaping could have even more dire consequences.

In this snippet of our exclusive interview with Public Health England, hear Dockrell discuss how vaping is 95% less harmful than smoking and learn the science behind this determination.

VTA RESPONDS TO CDC & FDA STATEMENTS
September 6, 2019

“VTA has previously said public health departments should fully investigate and release all information about these cases. Either there’s a legitimate basis to tell people to stop using e-cigarettes or they are feeding the hysteria around a different product to conflate the issues by failing to distinguish e-cigarettes. The Vapor Technology Association applauds FDA’s statement clearly advising consumers to avoid THC-containing vapor products. Even former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, no friend to the vapor industry, has assigned blame to illegal vapor products containing THC and cannabis. By contrast, CDC’s fear mongering statement is misguided and will only cause further harm to overall public health.” – Tony Abboud, Executive Director of the Vapor Technology Association.

Just yesterday New York’s own DOH said these cases were clearly marijuana related. We issued a statement to that point: https://bit.ly/2k5cDht 

Additionally, we’ve previously called on public health departments to release this information: https://bit.ly/2lXUcvH 

VTA strongly encourages all media outlets to promote the clear statement made by the FDA which fully understands the dangers posed by illicit products and the THC products at issue. VTA also reminds the media that nicotine-containing vapor products already are heavily regulated by the FDA.

A PBusardo Video – ECC Ontario California 2019 – VSticking Interview

In this video we interview VSticking at ECC Ontario California 2019 on their new VKsma. A mod that automatically pumps e-liquid into the atomizer.

This is the third time we are hearing about or seeing a similar mod. The others are the SX Mini SX Auto, and the Pioneer4You IPV V3-Mini… all of which are under the YiHi umbrella.

Interview was done for The Smoker’s Show and originally aired in that show on Tuesday September 3rd.

There has been a recent rash of “Vaping Related Illness” reported.
With those reports, I’ve received countless emails from concerned vapers.
Why am I receiving these emails? Here’s why:

PISS POOR NEWS REPORTING
INCOMPLETE NEWS REPORTING
MISINFORMATION
FEAR MONGERING
FAKE NEWS

You know… everything the main stream media has become known for.

Now that main stream media has taken a giant horse shit on “vaping” many of us are running around with tiny shovels trying to clean up the mess.  This mess has been created because many reports used “vaping” as a blanket statement instead of  identifying the real issue… Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-Containing Vaping Products

From the FDA Release:

In particular, many of the samples tested by the states or by the FDA as part of this ongoing investigation have been identified as vaping products containing tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC, a psychoactive component of the marijuana plant) and further, most of those samples with THC tested also contained significant amounts of Vitamin E acetate. Vitamin E acetate is a substance present in topical consumer products or dietary supplements, but data are limited about its effects after inhalation.

This does not affect the kind of vaping I talk about and promote.  It’s not the kind of vaping this website is all about.  Here, we discuss the use of electronic cigarettes by mature adult smokers who are looking for a far safer alternative to get their nicotine as apposed to that of a traditional tobacco cigarette.

Finally (now that the damage is done) we are seeing articles and stories correctly identifying the REAL problem.

If you’re a concerned vaper in the traditional sense… fear not!
If you’re one of those condemning ALL VAPING because of what’s going on… educate yourself!
If you’re a parent looking to BLAME vaping because little Billy or Sally is using shit like this…

Perhaps it’s time you stopped using the term “blame” and instead take some responsibility in knowing what little Billy and Sally are up to.

Here’s a news release hot off the presses from the FDA along with some other articles for you to read.
Hope this helps and vape happy everyone!
