Many young Americans consider e-cigarettes harmless, despite an outbreak of severe lung illnesses and deaths linked to vaping, according to a new poll.
The nationwide poll of more than 4,000 adults, commissioned by the American Society of Clinical Oncology , was conducted between July 9 and Aug. 10. Reports of vaping-related respiratory illnesses began in July.
"There are so many unanswered questions about e-cigarettes," Dr. Richard Schilsky, ASCO's chief medical officer, said in a society news release."We need more research about these products so we can begin to answer these questions and protect the health and safety of the American public through education and, where necessary, regulation."Vaping is far more popular with young adults than their older counterparts.
