Health experts are raising renewed concerns over the long term dangers of flavored e cigarettes after a reported case involving a U.S. teenager who developed bronchiolitis obliterans, commonly known as “popcorn lung,” following years of secret vaping.
Bronchiolitis Obliterans is a serious and irreversible condition that damages and scars the smallest airways in the lungs. The disease can lead to chronic coughing, wheezing, breathing difficulties, and lifelong respiratory complications.
Medical experts say the condition was once primarily linked to exposure to diacetyl, a chemical previously associated with microwave popcorn factories. However, researchers now warn that certain chemicals used in flavored e cigarette liquids may become toxic when heated and inhaled.
Reports indicate that more than 180 flavoring chemicals are currently used in vape liquids, many of which have not been fully tested for inhalation safety. While some ingredients may be considered safe for consumption in food products, experts caution that inhaling them directly into the lungs can bypass the body’s natural defenses and potentially expose users to harmful compounds.
The case has renewed calls for stricter regulation, stronger public awareness campaigns, and greater caution regarding youth vaping trends. Health professionals continue emphasizing that lung damage linked to vaping may be permanent, but also preventable

I hate this song, but as a teen of the 90’s it does make me feel a certain way. Also seeing people just enjoying the moment, without 15k phone screens up is wildly satisfying.

@BartekMoniewski I’ve never made movies, but I have written songs and not every idea is a good idea. This whole video feels like that placeholder riff you’re dying to get rid of, but no one in the band has a better idea at the moment.
Ich liebe diesen Post von @GrimmGreen
Er zeigt sehr deutlich, wie die #WHO mit billigen Taschenspieler Tricks die öffentliche Meinung sowie politische Entscheidungen in Bezug auf die E-Zigarette manipuliert. Es handelt sich hierbei nicht um einen simplen Fehler in der Grafik. Nein, diese Kernaussage haben wir in unzähligen Presseberichten wiedergefunden.
Checkt die Fakten und glaubt nicht alles, was die WHO so schreibt.
