SAN FRANCISCO – (INT) - Another California death related to vaping is being reported in Marin County.

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is urging everyone to refrain from vaping and e-cigarette use, no matter the substance or source, until the cause of vaping-associated lung disease is known.

This recommendation remains strong in light of a new report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It announced Vitamin E acetate is a potential chemical of concern in the severe breathing problems and lung damage associated with vaping.
