Deerfield-News.com-Deerfield Beach, Fl-While some would have you believe vaping is totally safe, recent hospitalizations indicate otherwise. A new industry that has taken the US by storm in recent years, vaping may be much more problematic than imagined.

Now we have had a few clusters in the past few weeks of many who have become severely ill after vaping. Fourteen states now report cases of the new mystery illness brought on by vaping.
Officials are not sure if the illness is caused by the device or the substance being vaped.
