How harmful is vaping?

Vaping is linked to several health risks and can potentially damage the heart and lungs and cause addictionn. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has also warned that vaping harms young people as their lungs are yet to develop completely.

A recent study on 600 pregnant women found that pregnant women who vape are more likely to suffer miscarriages. The study's authors mentioned that chemicals used to flavor vapes could cause inflammation in the body and damage cells as one potential mechanism behind the rise in risk.

The video came at a time when the UK's chief medical officer, Sir Chris Whitty, made a demand for a crackdown on marketing strategies, leading to a rise in kids getting addicted to vape.
