Nursing assistant claims VAPING gave her pneumonia

A nursing assistant claimed VAPING gave her pneumonia and left her dependent on an oxygen tank to breathe as an investigation is launched into an epidemic of mysterious lung illnesses linked to e-cigarette use.

Aubree Butterfield smoked the highly addictive, nicotine-packed e-cigarettes “constantly” for three years until she began vomiting and coughing up blood.

Doctors diagnosed the 25-year-old with lipoid pneumonia when they discovered vegetable glycerine, a common ingredient in vape juice, in her lungs.

The rare condition occurs when fat particles enter the lungs.
