The DOH said that she “met the case criteria for Evali” based on guidelines provided by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
The patient was discharged after six days in the hospital and as of Nov. 7 she was “well with no recurrence of symptoms,” Duque said, adding that she has also stopped smoking. “All e-cigarette users should seek immediate medical help, and ask their doctors for ways to quit these harmful products. I urge nonusers not to even try e-cigarettes at all,” Domingo said in a statement.On July 4, the DOH issued Administrative Order No. 2019-007 to regulate the use, sale and distribution of e-cigarettes in the country. The order strictly prohibits e-cigarettes from being sold to or purchased by minors.
The World Health Organization disputed the claim, saying there has been no systematic evaluation of e-cigarettes that could prove that. WHO instead found that tobacco smokers just became e-cigarette smokers or dual users, like the Visayas patient.
Vaping at 16?! I wonder where her parents or guardians are and what they feel about it. Bitter life lessons to learn... hopefully. Maybe.
