        The discrepancy between what Dr. Redfield SHOULD know, and what CDC says, continues to grow. Anyone who has taken epidemiology 101 should get this. Probably best if CDC stops encouraging Americans to smoke, since smoking kills 1,350 Americans every day.https://twitter.com/ChaunceyGardner/status/1185201530850467840 …

        (1/5) @CDCgov KNOWS - most lung cases caused by bootleg THC - bootleg THC oils are contaminated - patients reluctant to admit THC use - numerous recent THC drug busts - nicotine ecigs used safely for 12 yrs - no correlation bet illnesses & ecig use: > by geography > by age

        “Data suggests products containing THC, particularly those obtained off the street or from informal sources (like friends, family, or dealers), play a major role in the lung injury outbreak.” Tell me what the problem is with the lung injuries Surgeon General! NOT e-cigarettes!!!!

        Yup, lots of people are dying from blackmarket THC carts but you wont specify that. Your career will be short lived and you will be remembered for discouraging smokers to switch.

        I'm still waiting to hear your explanation on WHY is is only happening here in the states.... Vaping is world wide not just here. So please do explain this. And yet again THC which has been proven to be the cause is not mention. Failure to notify the public and keep misleading...

        This is very alarming. I need to update my slide for tomorrow’s talk at #ANES19 when I prepared my talk one month ago, there were only 20 cases of death. 😱 Thanks for sharing. @ASALifeline @ASRA_Society @APSForgpic.twitter.com/UkvIrRlv8j

        Replying to @NarouzeMD @Surgeon_General and

        If you are going to update your slide make sure you get it correct since the SG can’t! “Data suggests products containing THC, particularly those obtained off the street or from informal sources (like friends, family, or dealers), play a major role in the lung injury outbreak.”
