U.S. health officials are recommending that people stop using electronic cigarettes or vaping products, particularly those that contain the marijuana ingredient tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), based on the latest findings of an ongoing investigation into a string of illnesses and deaths.

The spate of lung injuries associated with e-cigarette use or vaping suggests that THC products “play a role in the outbreak,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
