    This is Thomas. He got addicted to nicotine vaping nicotine at age 15. He says he grew tolerant and needed more and more hits to get a buzz, so he mixed in THC vape. Then he got so sick his lung collapsed. His message to youth- don’t vape. It can lead to addiction, and worse!pic.twitter.com/MKS4x0QiCI

        To clarify, when I said he “mixed in THC vapes,” I meant he said he would go back and forth between THC & nicotine vapes. But Thomas was clear- his addiction started w/ potent nicotine vapes, & he wants youth to avoid his mistakes and not vape anything. I hope all agree on that!

        Wow. Blaming nicotine vaping for drug dealers selling to a teenager. What else are we going to blame on nicotine? And I assume you'll also be posting a positive harm reduction video for adults as well?

        I asked him days ago to allow me to come in for a similar interview on his twitter so I can talk about how nicotine products got me to quit smoking and my health hasn’t been this great in a long time (per my doctor). I’ll drive to his office myself at my expense. No response 😕

        The black market might, but then, that is what Dr. Adams is ignoring.

        The tax-funded chief medical officer of the United States obviously likes more to pose for an photo op with a fraudulent juvenile criminal (possession of schedule 1 drugs by minors is a crime in all states) than with a taxpaying, law abiding and voting senior citizen of the USA!

        show me the evidence instead of the anecdotes that teens who illegally get nicotine products from their friends then transition to other illegal products like THC from the black market. This is all scare-mongering and beneath the historic evidence-based approach to US regulation.
