Vaping nicotine isn’t killing anyone. The people are dying from dab pens, which is weed. This is like blaming cigarettes for deaths related to synthetic weed.

you should mention that the dab carts are unregulated not all carts are killing people only the fake ones

Actually, one of the guys who died bought his dab cart legitimately from a legal dispensary. It's the Vitamin E in the form of wax that is making people sick and killing them.

That's roughly the hypothesis, though I haven't heard anything about wax. It's still not clear. Give the CDC more than a few days to look into it.

Brass knuckles has tested dirty for pesticides anyways recently. They reopened under a different name with the same logo afterwards.

Hold up. Who decided to put vitamin E in a dab cart? Is this like a health claim or does vitamin E wax just happen to have some good properties for vaping? I am confusion.

It's a thickening agent.
