So we ask, what other evolutions of the vaporizer designs and technologies have you seen?
On the other hand, there’s the oil, as we mentioned, and we saw a health crisis hit our industry in 2019 and published a white paper on the vaping crisis. There was an issue with the vitamin E acetate being used in the formula, Massachusetts even banned them entirely for a while. We discuss the reports that this was putting people in the hospital with lung infections.
