A radiation oncologist with the Agnesian Cancer Center in Fond du Lac says the recent rash of lung illnesses and deaths due to vaping is quite concerning, given that a year ago, vaping was not even on most people’s radar. Dr. Philip Troiki says a big part of the problem is the vaping products are not regulated. “You have to remind yourself that for tobacco cigarettes how long it took for people to wake up and say maybe this is causing some trouble. This (vaping) is in warp speed,” Troiki told WFDL news. Dr. Troiki says he is surprised that given the situation the FDA hasn’t stepped in to take action.
