Actually...weirdly enough, a majority of these cases of lung damage from vaping happened in 2019-2020. One of the most likely culprits of the outbreak is a chemical called vitamin E acetate, which was used as a thickening agent in weed vapes. I don't think we've had many cases since the major outbreak.
So it might not have been "vaping too much" so much as it was likely contaminated vapes.
I don't vape, myself. But there is always more background info to discover on these things.

It's also a very expensive habit. That model can cost $500 for just one vape.
Isn't that asthma inhaler? They're like 15 euros everywhere.
In the US, they cost way more. Cost me $80 and that's with a coupon. Also that's the joke here.
Woooooosh
dont bring that toxicity here, be better
But ackshwally this is just huffing.
And vaping really isn't inhaling vapor (it's actually atomization, a bunch of tiny droplets)
And just because I'm dumb, what is vapor, if not a bunch of small droplets?
Vapor is the result of a phase change to gas.
Which results in...? A bunch of droplets, no?
Nope, gas
Addiction is a bitch. Your friend will 100% thank you for this on the other side of it.
LOL!
But seriously, I can’t help remembering that 19 yr old who vaped himself into needing a double lung transplant. 😬
