That is from that CDC report on calls to poison control centers, published in April.
Here is one link (horrible story..... blather .. danger.. blather... but just one link : E-cigs' liquid nicotine causing poisonings - CNN.com
They could not resist preceding the quoted text by:
So is a freight train, if I throw myself in front of one to commit suicide /edit:
skimming over the .. poison...dangerous.. blather.. article...
Yeah.. keep e-liquid out of the reach of children. Like alcohol, bleach, and cleaning supplies. Good idea. It is called "parenting".
/edit2:
Can I trust my eyes? (still skimming over that article)
Says who? of what? Miracles never cease.

I think we should outlaw bridges, since it's possible to jump off one and commit suicide.
That's a flawed argument. Those people would just find something else to abuse.
Clearly, we should just outlaw humans, since they are the root of almost all problems.
Just like we did with Vaping?

His demo was using a container labeled "liquid nicotine". He also talked about the colorful labels that the kids might not be able to read but looked pretty and that the kids see their parents do something and they decide to imitate the behavior, which is bad.
He did end the show by saying something along the lines that his concern is the packaging and having the liquid nicotine get into the hands of children. He applauded the FDA for getting involved to regulate it in the near future because e-cigarettes have helped a great number of people quit smoking.
The end message was "better" than I thought he'd give. But to be fair, he is/was a ......

What he shoulda done on national TV was put a drop on his tongue and try to say with a straight face "See, it's delicious!"
I don't think OZ knows or cares one way or the other about vaping. He found a "sensationalistic topic", with the golden catch phrase "potential death".
It's about his ratings. (Similar to American Idol not looking for the best talent, just looking for ratings)

I believe all the media, and shows like Oz, know that they have gone as far as they can with stories on the horrors of tobacco. When viewers hear another "scare" story about smoking cigarettes or dipping they "tune out" the same way they are doing with stories on "Global Warming".
The media needed a new "scare" story and e-cigs fit right in. Tobacco related, but "new". This will continue until they get all the punitive rules, regulations, and taxes that cigarettes enjoy then they will move on to something else.

Just looked at that clip.
Really that guy is such a horse's a**. The "brain" thing? Was that a joke?
He boarders on dangerous on many levels and is downright deceptive on all levels. The fact that he wears scubs on that show should be addressed. Why would he do that? Sheould we believe that he is such a busy doctor that he didn't have time to change out of his scrubs before the show started? No. It's made to make him appear like he's a practicing Dr. He may be technically. I don't know. But he is not keeping regular Dr hours.
The CDC guy to me, is more culpable. He's a working professional. He has all the data we have and he's choosing to mislead by omission. The difference in the word "death" vs "deaths" is not insignificant. He knows damn well that that little drop on the glove was misleading. He knows that the one death was by injection and he knows that the relative number of medical emergencies due to juice is statistically insignificant.
Oz is a fool. We all know that. It amazes me that people are even in those seats at his shows. People are actually that naive?
Anyway, it was amusing in a way to see that guy do his act on this. What a scmuck.

I can't stand him but the truth is that some will follow the yellow brick road to kneel at his alter just like they do his mentor.
When my son was a first grader at a very strict Southern Baptist school, his teacher pulled me to the side and told me she was concerned about the drawings my son had been doodling on paper. She said it looked like he was drawing the devil, and then showed the drawing to me.
I began laughing out loud when I saw it. She said what is so funny?
I told her that the drawings were of his favorite video game character - Sonic the Hedgehog.
I kinda doubt that this teacher ever had sex just based on her unattractive appearance, but different strokes for different folks. Pun intended.
For such a bright man it is a shame he has fallen into the world of subjective journalism - talk show host.
My wife was watching him the other day. I has to leave the room because he is a fool. Isn't he the guy who attacked apple juice for having too much arsenic in it?
Isn't he also kooky as in anti vaccine? Scary that he is actually a pretty good heart surgeon.... Last time I checked I don;t go to a heart surgeon for advice on nutrition unless it is for the heart.

And not fatal. That is, regular ejuice. (not sure about more concentrated nic that can be bought for mixing, but the discussion is about common e liquids)
There was one report I read where a woman tried to commit suicide and drank a 30ml bottle of 12 or 18 nic juice. At the ER, they gave her activated charcoal, monitored her for a while, and released her for psych follow up.
The other case was a month later, the SAME woman now drank 32mg nic liquid, 2 30ml bottles. Yea she was sick, vomiting, chills sweats. Again, activated charcoal and released her.
I found not one case of fatality other than a small toddler in Sweden? And that's more of a case of parental neglect.
Strange how little ol me has more facts than the great and powerful Oz...
One toddler in Israel, which as far as I know was never confirmed.
I have always watched Dr. Oz, but this segment made me furious! Such lies and misinformation. His so-called expert made it seem that we all vape pure nicotine. And then to say that vapers take in much more nicotine than if they were smoking (can't remember exactly how much more) I immediately posted my comments on his facebook page, I hope others do too. He will probably not read it, but made me feel a little better. I am done with Dr. Oz!

Yeah those danged ole humans. They have caused death, war, global warming, extinction of many species, and many more atrocities against the universe. Ban them all.
