Recently, Nanjing 120 successively received requests from students from a certain school in Nanjing, stating that several students had symptoms of dizziness, palpitation and even restlessness at the same time. These students all developed the above symptoms after smoking an electronic cigarette purchased online.

E-cigarette products, not only cannot play a role in smoking cessation as some manufacturers advertise, but because they also contain a variety of toxic and harmful substances, they will also cause damage to health, and they are also similar to ordinary cigarette products. The same can cause addiction to the addict.
With this understanding, people who really care about their health and the health of people around them should take the initiative to stay away from tobacco products, including e-cigarettes.
However, the case of several college students in the news that had to be sent to a doctor for smoking e-cigarettes is telling us that many young people still cannot resist the temptation of e-cigarettes.
But what is more worthy of vigilance is why these college students have such violent reactions and symptoms after smoking e-cigarettes?
Although e-cigarettes endanger your health, this hazard is a long-term process, and it may take several years to show up. It is impossible to show symptoms of physical discomfort immediately after smoking.
In fact, the media has exposed a possible answer before, that is, recently in China, criminals have publicly sold the so-called "shangtou e-cigarettes" on Moments of Friends and e-commerce platforms, which use "shangtou" and "flying" Vocabulary such as "pleasure" attracts buyers. The main ingredient in this e-cigarette is tetrahydrocannabinol, which is actually a new type of drug.
Tetrahydrocannabinol, as an extract of traditional drug cannabis, is also an addictive and harmful substance that may exist in electronic cigarettes.
Cannabis is a strictly controlled product in the United Nations Anti-drug Convention. The abuse of cannabis can cause hallucinations and even life-threatening.
Although it is still impossible to conclude that these college students in the news have experienced violent physical reactions because they smoked electronic cigarettes containing THC, but this phenomenon is enough to cause us to be highly vigilant.
The hospital receiving the treatment is also highly suspicious of this, so it has already reported the case to the public security organ.
Because once this kind of drug-containing e-cigarettes are sold wantonly on online platforms, it will inevitably cause various social problems, including causing young people to become drugged, addicted to addiction, and seriously damage their physical and mental health.
In this regard, we must first remind young people to be vigilant and stay away from e-cigarettes and other tobacco products. At the same time, online platforms must comprehensively strengthen investigations and supervision. Once someone is found to sell such e-cigarette products containing drug ingredients, they should not only be removed from the shelves immediately, but also And to report to the police in time. At the same time, the public security departments and drug control departments should also pay great attention to the "drugization" tendency of electronic cigarettes, and on the basis of investigation and evidence collection, severely crack down and comprehensively contain them.
