A report by clinicians in North Carolina last month pointed to the inhalation of fatty substances from aerosolized oils, but a new study by the Mayo Clinic published this week found patients' lungs had been exposed to noxious fumes. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday that 18 deaths in 15 states had now been positively linked to vaping, from a total of 1,080 cases of people sickened -- a jump of 275 since last week. Connecticut officials also announced the first death in the state, bringing the total to at least 19.
