'I wrote, ‘I want to start a no-vaping campaign.’ That was the first thing I did when I opened my eyes.” A vaping-related injury landed this teen in the ICU. Now, one of the doctors treating her discusses the risks for young, healthy adults who vape:
Though she might not look like it today, Simah Herman said she was sure she was going to die last month as she sat in the car unable to breathe, her father racing her to the hospital.
Still unable to breathe after two days, Herman had to be put on a ventilator, and shortly afterward, a medically induced coma. It was while she was in the coma that her cousin revealed a secret that Simah had been keeping from her parents that helped lead to some answers. Simah Herman’s story is one of the latest in a string of cases of serious — sometimes even life-threatening — illnesses linked to vaping.
Simah Herman said she first started vaping at age 15, and that she’d buy the cartridges from a smoke shop despite being a minor. "We share these concerns about youth vaping, which is why we have taken the most aggressive actions of anyone in the industry to combat youth usage," Juul said.
“I didn’t think of myself as a smoker. Like, it’s just a different kind of smoke,” Simah Herman said. “The vaping just makes it seem like nothing. Like you’re doing nothing wrong.”
