Oregon is investigating a recent death that could be the second vaping-related casualty on record. Oregon health officials say the person succumbed to an unspecified respiratory illness in July. Last month, the first vaping-related death was reported in Illinois. Several hundred people around the country have been confirmed or suspected to have contracted the critical lung condition. Michigan, meanwhile, will be the first state to ban the sale of flavored e-cigarettes. Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer said e-cigarette manufacturers are using deceptive marketing and candy flavors to “hook children on nicotine.”
