      Our investigation into the concerning reports of respiratory illness and deaths associated w/ vaping is a top priority for FDA and our federal, state, local health partners. We’re working tirelessly to gather and analyze information about these incidents.https://bit.ly/2m3uYft

      We are leaving no stone unturned in following any potential leads, including Vitamin E acetate found in many of the samples containing THC, and we’re committed to taking appropriate actions as the facts emerge.https://go.usa.gov/xV9h4

          More information is needed about the products used, where they were obtained & what substances they contain. We urge consumers to avoid buying vaping products from the street, and to refrain from using THC oil or modifying/adding any substances to products purchased in stores.

          At the same time, we’re maintaining our ongoing focus, with @HHSgov and @CDCgov, to address the epidemic of youth e-cigarette use. We’re taking aggressive action to keep these products out of the hands of children through compliance, education and enforcement actions.

          We’ll continue using all our tools as appropriate to protect kids. And we’ve put the industry on notice: If the disturbing rise in youth e-cigarette use continues, especially the use of kid-friendly flavors, we’ll take even more aggressive action.

          Replying to @FDACommissioner

          Mind that many producers, particularly, yet not limited to, black market producers are using isobutane and other such hydrocarbons to strip the desired oils/compounds from the vegetative matter, perhaps not just in the case of cannabis oils.
