How unbelievably stupid. After years of progress, we've finally gotten to the point where e-cigarettes are not only a much less disgusting alternative to smoking, but they're also equally satisfying and more convenient. If they end up being banned completely, it will just push the market underground and we'll go back to homemade/cheap Chinese mods and questionable quality juices.

There should be regulation and safety testing, not outright bans.

Maybe you should spend 20 seconds reading the article.

"The purpose of this public health emergency is to temporarily pause all sales of vaping products so that we can work with our medical experts to identify what is making people sick and how to better regulate these products to protect the health of our residents,"

It's a clickbaitey title at best on failed Yahoo.com meant to stir up hits and clicks based on the over hyped vaping trend... News media is just as crap and full of lies and misinformation as politics, and it's gonna eventually erode everyone's trust. Not much cause for panic.

It perplexes me though why they're using the term e-cigarettes and vaping as the same thing one moment, then as different things at the next moment, and why they didn't detail the the ban is "temporary" rather than how they are portraying it.

None of the media outlets discussing this subject are dealing with actual and responsible facts, and they're shooting themselves in the foot by not simply conveying facts rather than speculation and inaccuracies.

Yet mass shootings is still a thing ... find the US to be a really funny place.
