  1. Do the math. The news is making a fear campaign against vaping. Who owns the news or holds a high influence on some news outlets? Big Pharma and Big Tobacco. Big Pharma is afraid of losing a ton of money from their smoking cessation products such as the patch, sprays, lozenges, gum, and antidepressant drugs that are used for the same purpose. Big Tobacco will lose lots of money if vaping becomes the ā€œnew cigaretteā€ people decide to get their nicotine from. But even more evil is the fact that if they keep people smoking cigarettes guess what industry benefits from all the health problems associated with the combustion of tobacco. It is one big cycle of bullshit to keep these industries alive and well. Sick of hearing all this bullshit… itā€™s the same with pain killers there is similar plan that make getting rid of painkillers more profitable for the very same industry that makes them. If people are suffering from severe chronic pain all and night everyday they will seek other alternatives to treat their pain and emotional turmoil. It is always about the money and politicians are just puppets and the mainstream news media turns people into mindless sheep. Left, right, or center all news agencies make their own little echo chambers for the god damn American public that generally speaking does not possess critical thinking skills and never questions what they are told. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence that proves many of their talking points wrong. One such example is the undeniable evidence that shows vaping is ninety-five percent less harmful for you than smoking or that nicotine is no more dangerous than caffeine. Yah not vaping or smoking is the best option but guess what people are going to do what they want to do regardless of the dangers… FFS news is not news anymore and hasnā€™t been for a very long time.

  2. I literally just walked into school and saw my classmate just throw up on herself and fall, basically having a seizure. It was so scary. Iā€™m glad sheā€™s alive though.

  3. Each year, aboutĀ 150,000 AmericansĀ are diagnosed with this central nervous system disorder that causesĀ seizures. Over a lifetime,Ā 1 in 26 U.S. peopleĀ will be diagnosed with the disease, nobody blinks an eye. 35 in over 10 million Americans to vape over the last 10 years, everyone loses their fucking mind. The report should show you're less fucking likely to have seizures lmao.

  4. The FDA likes to throw around a lot of misinformation. Especially Scott Gottlieb. They want to poison the pool of public opinion so when it comes time for voting on things such as flavors in Vape liquid, they get things band like in New York. This will start a chain reaction in other places that might of been on the fence will follow as well. Theyā€™ve been trying to do the same thing with the herbal supplement kratom.

  5. I know for a fact that amphetamines can cause siezures. As well as some cutting agents that ppl use in amphetamines and other narcotics can cause siezures especially when injected or when ppl have had a history of siezures.

  6. I think they need to lower the MG on salt nic 55mg is ridiculous (IMO) I smoked for 40 years 2 packs a day menthol cigarettes Iā€™m one year free of cigarettes and decreased from 3mg Freebase nicotine to 1.5mg

  7. In the UK, vaping is linked to heart disease and depression… because people with heart disease tend to stop smoking, and people with depression tend to like coping mechanisms and distractions.Ā  They didn't bother to mention that the actual staff in the facilities that treat patients hail vaping as the mostĀ successful smoking cessation method ever devised.Ā  My dad had a heart attack a couple of years ago, bowel cancer, and several micro-strokes.Ā  At this time, with all that going on heĀ was smoking a pack of cigars a day – and not a little 5 pack.Ā  Now he has an AegisĀ full of Heisenberg attached to his hand 24 hours a day, 2 years down the line that we wouldn't have had without vaping… hoping for even more yearsĀ with him than weĀ deserve.Ā  I suffer from anxiety and to be honest I always found it very difficult to quit smoking – I couldn't be productive without it, always miss my joint.Ā  Now 2 years down the line since my last cigarette… and that was only a couple after a xmas party.Ā  I don't have to sit and smoke toĀ concentrate, I can vape any time I want.Ā  The bottom line is that compared to other cessation techniques, vaping is delicious and relaxing and interesting and defensible.Ā  My fam run into people who dislike vaping all the time – they talk a lot of rubbish then have to come to me to corroborate… boils my piss bro – it means I missed out on correcting/traumatising an idiot – educating them about what vaping actually does that's different to smoking andĀ why governments don't like it.

  8. This is no less than a revelation. Good job fda! Millions dies every year from cigarettes and they cling to 35 cases in 10 years with no proove of it coused by e cigs. Amazing how they care for our health…
    Tobacco corporations has the fda in their money stincking pockets.

  9. Lol I take caffeine pills to stay alert and I take amphetamines for adhd and I vape to help with stop smoking 2 packs and I havenā€™t have seizures I use a breeze 2 with 36mgs nicotine and I feel fine lol maybe itā€™s because stupid people who doesnā€™t know to keep hydrated because amphetamines and caffeine and nicotine vg can make you you dehydrate and you need to stay hydrated because dehydration can make you have seizures I stay hydrated all day with my big ass water bottle I have with me all the time I swear ppl need to know this before combing this shit you know

  10. Hey Wayne, how many had a seizure behind the wheel, veered off and killed a family of 3 or 4 in a minivan? You know, like drunk drivers have been known to do, and drinking is legal, I would know. I'm 12 beers and about 10mls of Misty in for my final work day of the week. But hey fuck it, these damn vapers are ruining the youth and causing global warming

  11. Thanks heaps for this Wayne. Saw this article a few nights ago I think and I was basically waiting for you to cover it and you did! Thanks for your insight and explanation šŸ‘

  12. I am going to back up the c-liquid theory. While I was in prison I must have seen 100 or more people fall out and have seizures from smoking k2, and I personally know how it effects you, I tried k2 one time and said never again, itā€™s a vary bad and dangerous compound of many chemicals.

  13. Wayne love "VaporAlert" segment, just awesome common sense approach to vapor related news! It kills me to hear and especially watch the FDA puke out just another absurd claim that somehow vaping is the "Devil!" It definitely doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what the FDA's angle is but come on already "Seizures" really? The only thing making them have a seizure and I use that term loosely, is quite simply is the high dose nicotine in salt nic liquids most likely! But I'm not a scientist so let's just do a unbiased 10 year study on everything vaping! #blackcatfam #VapingSavesLives #PhoenixVapor

  14. Lol you also have to think if these people have the condition beforehand and if they had lack of sleep and alcohol in their system as well.

    If thatā€™s the case, a ham sandwich will trigger it šŸ¤¬

  15. I can see flashing light triggering seizures but not the act of vaping causing this. My sister is epileptic and flashing lights will trigger it. Video games and movies with the same flashing/strobing light can trigger this as well.

    They are reaching like a mo-fo and you just want to take them by the scruff of their neck and put their face in their shit and say ā€œbad fda…bad!!ā€ā€

  16. I'd go as far as to say this was irresponsible of the FDA to put that info out there. It's ridiculous! It's like if the police were investigating a murder and they put out a press release saying, "Jim Bob was seen near the scene of the crime that night. We're not saying he's guilty, we just want the public to be safe". Like, wtf?! It's so frustrating!

  17. To be clear, I'm just pulling these numbers from a google search. So no actual scientific stuff to see here.
    An estimated 3.7% of the Us population vape.
    And, according to the report you're showing here, 0.0004% of those that vape have reported a seizure in the last 10 years. (the non reported number is probably higher, because if you know you have a CNS than you're not gonna blame it on your fucking vape. Except if the CNS is Alzheimers of Dementia, than you're maybe going to blame it on your vape because you forgot that you also have epilepsy. Duh.)

    Now imagine the following very simple logit model (logit because most medical research happens at the frequentist pleb level):
    likelihood of seizure ~ had brain injury Yes?No? + has CNS because of that fucking brain injury Yes?No? + consumes chocolate Yes?No? + hypoglycemic Yes?No? + Vapes Yes?No?
    Which one of these will be the first to fall victim to insignificance? If you said "consumes chocolate" than I have bad news for you. You have failed to understand basic statistics.

    However, there is hope. People are getting more educated and start to understand the meaning of causation.
    BTW, even with more sophisticated methods I would guess that the effect of vaping would have almost no power when investigating "the likely causes of seizures in first reporters." (which should also be the title of the actual paper if someone manages to do proper research on the topic)

    I hate these kinds of reports so bad that I just wasted 10 minutes of my time typing this shit up. And I also hate people who perpetuate this BS.
    So, Matthew Perrone and all the others un-ironically reporting on this topic, fuck you!

  18. I think people are just looking for someone to sue. The vape industry is easy pickings because there's not enough studies proving the effects of vaping on the human body.

  19. Just in…..smoking is linked to millions of deaths…..fact….but FDA once again look for anything to bolster their argumemt against vaping. We know smoking kills so why not ban it…..ah thats right…..money above health. Good video Wayne

  20. It's all fear based propeganda. The fda bullies Americans expecting them to believe everything they say. People don't know that the fda is a business and relys on these big donations to keep them afloat. If you aren't pushing these donors agenda then the fda won't receive the money. To donors include big pharma. Nuff said

  21. I have epilepsy and vaping did not make my seizures any worse. And wtf is this with a government agency saying shit like this without any of it being proven? It seems like they're stretching more and more everytime they say anything about vaping.
