Interesting that the illness is only being detected in the US I had a look and see no stats from Europe or here in Australia. Another interesting point already pointed out is the connection with THC. I can't buy e juice with THC in it in Australia, in fact I need to have juice containing nicotine imported as that is a legal grey area here too.
Alot of thest kids have been vaping for a shorter time than I have (years), here's hoping it is THC that is the cause.

Its not THC that's causing the problems, its this ridiculous trend of producing it into a liquid for vaping... cannabis extract just simply isn't viable to come in the form of a liquid "vaping juice".

Vape Industry Update To Our Valued Customers and the Public at Large: You may be aware of certain headlines describing health concerns about āvapingā and, speciļ¬cally, recent incidents of injury or death. We would like to clarify the issues so that consumers and the public can take the necessary precautions. Early research and data provided by our company scientists, as well as from the FDA and other public health entities, indicates that many of these recent tragic deaths are linked to the consumption of black market and/or adulterated THC cartridges. It is speculated, yet not fully conļ¬rmed, that a molecule called Vitamin E Acetate has been responsible for the adverse health outcomes reported in many of the cases. Vitamin E Acetate can be formed when Vitamin E and Acidic Acid are present in a formula that has a pH value below 4.8. Our preliminary analysis shows that legitimate nicotine vaping products do not contain Vitamin E Acetate and do not have pH values below 4.8. In addition, XXXXX manufactured products do not contain Vitamin E Acetate. We encourage you to not buy or sell black market products or thickening agents that can be used to modify products in a way that could result in the production of Vitamin E Acetate. Modiļ¬cation of nicotine products is not only unsafe, but illegal. Further, we encourage everyone to educate themselves and share with others the importance of only purchasing products from reputable sources and to never modify them for other purposes. As always, it is important to stay educated, informed and engaged. Thank you for your inquiries, and please continue to take the time to ask questions in order to better inform others. Hopefully, with your help, organized and responsible nicotine delivery companies can be separated from this misinformed media coverage. Our company will continue to lead eļ¬orts to ensure quality assured products are available for our customers and the market.
What can you do? 1. DO NOT buy or sell black market products. 2. DO NOT BUY, SELL, OR USE THICKENING AGENTS that could be used to modify (adulterate) products in a way that could result in the production of Vitamin E Acetate. Modiļ¬cation (adulteration) of nicotine products is not only unsafe, but illegal. 3. IF you vape, consider ONLY reliable products from responsible manufacturers. 4. EDUCATE yourself and others on the importance of purchasing products only from reputable sources and not modifying them for other purposes. Best regards,
great, now go down to my local park and tell that to the crack heads sitting on the swing set.

Where the F is this "mold" growth that you keep talking about ? .... the human body is not a dry sack, including your normal set of lungs. There is liquid everywhere including the air you breathe every day, heck go to a tropical country where its 100% humidity and you are basically breathing in wet steam.
Do some darn research and stop making stuff up.
