Chemicals in vape smoke causes “popcorn lung” and other bronchial problems
Lithium ion-powered vapes can blow up
Levels of nicotine are completely lacking ANY control or quality
Metal particles and metal traces can be deadly
Vapes also contain formaldehyde, embalming fluid, propylene glycol and other dangerous substances
