The CDC is investigating an alarming new trend that's sending people to the hospital across the country for lung issues. Doctors are reporting a spike in severe pulmonary illnesses possibly relating to e-cigarette products or vaping. There are now more than 150 cases in at least 16 states. One of those cases was 18-year-old Chance Ammirata, who ended up in a Florida hospital after he felt pain in his chest. “It was almost as if I was having a heart attack and I couldn't breathe,” he describes. It turns out his lung collapsed, which doctors say could have happened from something he inhaled. The teen blames vaping, which he started about a year and a half ago. “I didn't think vaping could have that effect on my lungs,” he says. In Texas, 17-year-old Trystan Zohfeld spent 18 days in the hospital and lost nearly 30 pounds after his lung failed. His doctors also believe vaping could have played a factor. According to the CDC, since June vaping has been linked to more than 153 mysterious cases of lung disease, spreading from coast to coast, in at least 16 states. The common link: vaping products that contain either nicotine or THC. “We've seen the damage and the dangers of nicotine addiction, but now, we see the possibility of lung problems and others,” says John Schachter with the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. Health advocates are pushing for the FDA to implement tougher restrictions, including a ban on flavored e-cigs, saying they target children. “Why are we waiting, God forbid, for a fatality? These are children. It's our job to protect them,” says Meredith Berkman, with Parents Against Vaping E-Cigarettes (PAVE). The American Vaping Association issued a statement saying in part, "the evidence continues to point to street-bought vaping cartridges containing THC or synthetic drugs as being the cause of these illnesses.” Meanwhile, Ammirata hopes telling his story will lead to more awareness.“I have thousands of messages of people telling me they quit due to my story, but more importantly due to their bravery,” the teen says. 2075

A library book in Maryland is getting national attention after a little girl’s love for the book turned into its own story.Anita Vassallo, the acting director of Montgomery County Public Libraries in Maryland, loves a good story.This month, she read the children’s book The Postman for the very first time, after getting a copy of it in the mail.The person who sent the book: Mora Gregg, who checked the book out from the library back in 1946, when she was just 2 years old. Mora Gregg and her family moved to Canada before she could return it. While cleaning recently, she found the book she’s had all these years.“Probably when I was dusting the books and came across it and was rummaging a bit because it had slipped behind some other books,” Gregg recalls.After finding the neglected piece of her childhood, Gregg decided to return the book to the library 73 years later.“I’m not getting any younger and I didn’t want it to get thrown away or lost or anything to happen,” Gregg says.Gregg mailed the book back to the library with a note inside, joking how she refused to let it go because she loved it so much.The story provided a surprise ending to Vassallo, who also joked about the book’s return.“We don’t charge fines on children’s books, so no matter how old a kid’s book is when it comes back to us, there’s no charge,” Vassallo says. 1356

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Within the World Wide Web, lies a whole world of information. “We worried about hackers,” said University of Maryland professor Jennifer Golbeck, “but we didn't worry about essentially ‘surveillance capitalism’ – companies that make money by collecting data about us and selling it to other people.” Those companies are known as “data brokers.” They operate with little oversight, but collect thousands of pieces of data about you every day. What could it include? If you have a store loyalty card – they know what you buy. If you have an app – they can track your location and what websites you visit. Credit reports, real estate transactions, job applications: all can be compiled by data brokers to paint a picture of who you are. They don’t have to tell you about it and it’s all perfectly legal. Prof. Golbeck specializes in data privacy at University of Maryland’s College of Information Studies and has looked at the way data brokers operate. “For data brokers, in particular, people have tried [to find out what they know] and most of the time they won't share it because that's their product. The thing that has a value is all that data. So, they don't want to give it away,” she said. “It's their data. It's about you. And that, I think, is really the fundamental problem with how we think about data in the U.S. It is my data. It's information about me. But I don't have a right to it. I don't own it here.” That is not the case in Europe, where the European Union enacted the “General Data Protection and Regulation” law in 2018. It regulates the processing of personal information and data and allows consumers to request a copy of the data collected about them – similar to the way people in the U.S. can get a copy of their credit report. Privacy experts say that’s what makes the need for federal oversight of data brokers so critical. “Ultimately, this is not a ‘David versus Goliath’ situation. It is not something that consumers can solve on their own,” said Alan Butler, senior counsel for the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) in Washington, D.C. This month, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York) introduced the “Data Protection Act of 2020.” Among other things, it would create a federal “Data Protection Agency” that would protect consumers and monitor where their data goes and how it’s used. “I think what we've seen over the past 10 years is an increase really an epidemic of data breach in this country. And that's really the result of the amassing of so much personal information in given places,” Butler said. “Really, we need laws that limit and control the collection of personal information rather than our current situation.” California recently enacted a stronger data privacy law within that state: the California Consumer Privacy Act, which allows people to learn what data is being collected about them and allows them to opt out of having their data sold. Experts believe that law could end up having a cascading effect and spread to other states, but a federal law would be the only way to guarantee those protections to all Americans. In the meantime, experts say in order to protect yourself, install a tracker blocker on your phone and browsers and set all your online settings to private. 3274
