The crisis continues to affect vape sales and dragging down the share prices of vaporizer companies. As of now, we still do not have a conclusive answer as to what precisely is causing all these new cases of respiratory illness. One thing that does seem clear is that the rise of this new lung condition is more closely linked to black market. Anyway, legalizing cannabis and cutting out the black market threat might be as a result of the vaping crisis.

"It's just a hot topic right now, give it a couple months and it will settle down" Michael Roger said. It's obviously that consumers are likely to return once things settle down, especially if the real reason behind the illnesses and deaths is more accurately identified.

The vape scare is well underway but this definitely will be a push for safer, legal products and more strict regulations and testing. Crisis always follows many opportunities.
