Vitamin E acetate, in combination with THC, may be to blame for a national outbreak of e-cigarette-related lung injuries that's linked to dozens of deaths, according to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials.Dr. Anne Schuchat, the principal deputy director of the CDC, said she would characterize it as a breakthrough in the agency's investigation, although more tests are necessary."These new findings are significant," Schuchat said during a press briefing on Friday. "We have a strong culprit."There is still more work to do and the CDC said it is continuing to test for a wide range of chemicals."This does not rule out other possible ingredients," Schuchat said. "There may be more than one cause."The CDC says its tests found vitamin E acetate in samples taken from 29 patients who were sick with vaping-related illness in 10 states. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, the primary psychoactive component of the cannabis plant, or its metabolites were detected in 23 of 28 patients.During the press briefing, CDC's Dr. James Pirkle described vitamin E acetate as "enormously sticky" when it goes into the lungs, and it "does hang around." Pirkle said it wouldn't be unusual for THC to be absent from some of the samples because it leaves the lungs faster. He added finding THC in 82% of the samples from 28 patients was "noteworthy."In September, New York health officials linked cases of severe lung illness to vitamin E acetate in cannabis-containing vaping products. At the time, investigators said it was "a key focus" of the state's investigation into the illnesses.An investigation into the link between vaping and severe lung illnesses has yielded the discovery of extremely high levels of the chemical vitamin E acetate in nearly all cannabis-containing vaping products that were analyzed, New York health officials said Thursday.Until the investigation is complete, the CDC suggests people refrain from using all vaping products with THC, no matter where people buy them. The investigation has found that many of these products patients used were bought online or received through friends or family, rather than through vaping shops or at licensed THC dispensaries.Vitamin E is used in several products, such as lotions and in supplements, but the CDC said there is a "big difference" in putting vitamin E on the skin or swallowing it in pill and in inhaling the oily vitamin.Dr. Jennifer Layden, the chief medical officer and state epidemiologist with the Illinois Department of Public Health, said in the press briefing that in her state, they found the majority of cases of the people who were sick used THC, and that their materials came from "informal sources." In Illinois, she said, they had not had any cases associated with the state's medical marijuana program.So far, there have been 2,051 cases of vaping associated illnesses, reported in every state, except for Alaska, as of November 5. States have reported at least 40 deaths. 2979

When traveling by air, airline safety standards require us to be prepared for the unlikely event of an emergency landing. But we don’t always know how to prepare for the unlikely event of an overbooked flight.Here are a few tips to help you deal with being bumped at the boarding gate — including how some protections from a 337

Vibrant splashes of paint embellish the walls in an otherwise ordinary building.The Nipper family is putting the finishing touches on what they hope will become a safe haven for Las Vegas teens who may need a little help.“If some teen is feeling suicidal or just needs to talk to somebody, they don't have to be put on a waiting list,” says co-administrator Nicholas Nipper. “They don't they don't have to be postponed and put off because they don't have the right insurance.”When it opens, the non-profit ‘Kyler’s Kicks Lounge’ will provide a safe space for teens with access to mental healthcare professionals, therapeutic activities and important social resources. All of it will be free of cost.“It's not just mental health care. Kids will be able to come in here and get tutoring you know get food and learn valuable life skills that they won't learn in school,” says 14-year-old Kyler Nipper.The endeavor is the next step in healing for the teen. When he was just eleven, he survived being bullied and stabbed by a classmate over his school shoes.“I never really realized that your life could end at any moment,” says Kyler. “So, I want to make sure that you have made an impact that you made other people's lives amazing”For the last three years he’s given away shoes through his non-profit ‘Kyler’s Kicks.’ For him, it was a way to help cope with PTSD after the attack and at the same time doing something to help others.“He loves doing it,” says Kyler’s father Nicholas Nipper. “He loves helping people he loves giving. This is a new venture.”It’s a new venture that Kyler says he hopes will provide access to mental healthcare for countless others like him.“My parents had to be willing to sacrifice all the money that we have to get me to see a therapist and have mental health care. But hopefully this place will prevent that for all the other kids," Kyler Nipper said. 1894

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Elizabeth Tikoyan admits her phone is never far from her hands.“Most people are on their phones for hours a day,” she said.Her phone served as a lifeline, of sorts – especially when she spent a chunk of her teenage years in the hospital.“When I was in high school, all my friends were going to their homecomings and proms,” Tikoyan said, “and I was going to doctors and treatment centers and they didn't know what was wrong with me.”Eventually, doctors figured out she had advanced Lyme disease. However, she never forgot the loneliness she experienced during that time.“I thought, ‘how could we personalize a way to connect with people on a one-to-one basis and make a more personalized connection?’ That's what was missing for me,” she said.That led Tikoyan to develop the Riley app.It allows people to connect to one another based on similar medical conditions, like cancer, autoimmune diseases and, now, even the coronavirus – where self-quarantines could lead to people feeling isolated.”Knowing that, other people out there are experiencing the same thing or going through the same experience, is really making them feel so much more empowered,” Tikoyan said.Among those people is Kathryn White, who also has Lyme disease, along with complex PTSD. Her service dog, Constantine, is constantly at her side, but she’s also found kindred spirits in the Riley app.“You start with, ‘hello, how are you?’ and then it quickly evolves into ‘how you doing today? How are you feeling?’” White said.So far, she has messaged others with similar conditions, including a person who lives in Spain.“One of the main things I was looking for was a friendship, was that support network, and I definitely found that with various people,” White said.Users can put in as little or as much personal information as they want into the free app. The Riley team said security is a top priority: they monitor for inappropriate content and allow users to flag it as well.“By connecting with each other, we can hopefully change the stigma and go out there and really feel empowered,” Tikoyan said.Since launching in January, more than 700 people have joined the Riley app. The team behind it is now working with several hospital systems to expand the app’s reach. 2270
