A new study by a Colorado lab points to a new potential culprit in the
nationwide wave of lung injuries caused by vaping: a rare disease caused
by inhalation of a chemical present in many cheap vape pens that is
used to fuse metals together.To get more news about Cheap Vape Deals, you can visit urvapin official website.
The study used data from 53 patient cases in Wisconsin and Illinois who suffered severe lung illness due to vaping. From that study, the lab concluded that the vaping illness symptoms directly correlate to an advanced stage of a very rare disease, almost exclusively suffered by welders and others who inhale chemical concoctions, called Metal Fume Fever.
The advanced stage of Metal Fume Fever, which the lab believes are the equivalent of the vaping illnesses, is called Cadmium Pneumonitis.
The culprit chemical, according to the lab? Silver solder, which helps binds metals together in many cheaply manufactured vape pens, which contains the chemical cadmium. When inhaled, cadmium oxide fumes are highly toxic to organs, and according to the study the fumes "directly injure lung cells, leading to fluid accumulation, impaired lung function, and respiratory failure."
Silver solder is used to "make stable unions between dissimilar metals such as copper and stainless steel," the study reads. The appeal of lower-end vape pen manufacturers using silver solder is its low price: "Cadmium-containing silver solder is less expensive than cadmium-free alternatives and has improved flow properties which facilitate the joining of dissimilar metals found in vape pen electrical components," the study reads.
The study, conducted by the Colorado Green Lab, is the latest evidence as health officials try to solve a wave of lung illnesses—including two deaths in Oregon—linked to vaping.
Several high-profile studies have come to different conclusions. While some have blamed black market cartridges and possible cutting agents like vitamin E acetate causing oil build-up in the lungs, others have likened the lung injuries to chemical burns.
Last week, Gov. Kate Brown implemented a six-month temporary ban against all flavored vaping products. The ban restricts all additives and flavors in cartridges including artificial flavors and botanically-derived terpenes. The ban will take effect within the week.
The new Colorado study suggests that Oregon's ban on flavored cartridges won't slow the wave of vaping-related sickness—because the source of the illness is the vape pens themselves, not the oils inside.But if the newest study from the Colorado Green Lab holds any bearing, Gov. Brown's flavor ban will have missed the mark.
But Susan Pinnock, a nurse who spoke on behalf of the Oregon Nurses Association, says she's read all the research—and isn't convinced the illnesses are being caused by just one culprit. If hardware is found to be the issue, she says, it won't mean that Brown's flavor ban is pointless.
“I feel like [the ban] still holds validity, because again we’re trying to reduce the risk and harm. A lot of the kids aren’t going to use if there’s no flavor,” Pinnock says. “The flavor ban is just going to help reduce the kids’ access.” Pinnock also thinks it will take longer than six months to identify the source of illness—and if chemicals in the hardware is a factor, then she says Brown should consider an all-out ban on vaping.
“I don’t think it will be happen in the the next six months. I think it’s going to take longer to figure that out. So I don’t think that will affect this particular six-month ban,” Pinnock says. “If it’s a hardware issue, then there’s no safe way to vape.”

Electronic cigarettes are touted by some as safer than smoking tobacco.
But a new study finds they damage blood vessels just like traditional
cigarettes do.To get more news about vape factory, you can visit univapo official website.
Among hundreds of healthy young adults, researchers found that vaping and smoking cigarettes cause the same harm to arteries that leads to heart attacks, strokes and heart disease.
"The evidence is growing that e-cigarettes may not be a reduced harm product when it comes to heart disease," said lead researcher Jessica Fetterman, an assistant professor of medicine at Boston University School of Medicine.
Abnormalities in artery stiffness persist in e-cigarette users, and no evidence shows that e-cigarette use reduces cardiovascular injury, dysfunction or harm associated with the use of combustible tobacco products, the study authors said.
For the study, Fetterman and her colleagues collected data on more than 400 men and women, aged 21 to 45, without heart disease or risk factors for heart disease.
Ninety-four were nonsmokers, 285 smoked traditional cigarettes, 36 used e-cigarettes and 52 used both traditional and e-cigarettes. All of the e-cigarette users had smoked tobacco in the past.Fetterman's team found that smokers who switched to e-cigarettes and those who smoked cigarettes and also vaped had stiffening of the arteries. This can damage small blood vessels and lead to heart disease.
The investigators also found that endothelial cells, which line blood vessels, had the same degree of damage whether people used e-cigarettes, traditional cigarettes, or both.Fetterman said longer-term research is needed to study whether arterial damage from e-cigarettes alone changes over time.
Stanton Glantz is a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco's Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education. He said, "Adults take e-cigarettes up because they think they're not as dangerous as tobacco cigarettes. But what this study is showing is that in terms of these very important measures of vascular function, they are basically the same as a cigarette."
Glantz thinks it's time for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to take action to warn people of the dangers of vaping.The FDA has been completely asleep at the switch on this," said Glantz, who wasn't involved in the new study.
The FDA still clings to the idea that e-cigarettes are better than tobacco cigarettes, Glantz said.
"Everybody thought, including me, that because you didn't have combustion, e-cigarettes had to be a lot better," he added.
But this study and others show that, even though there's no combustion, vaping floods the body with chemicals that cause the same harm as regular tobacco cigarettes, Glantz said.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) will release its interest rate
decision on September 23 at 10:00 (GMT+8). NZD/USD has weakened by about
150-pips with the overnight implied volatility recording 15.5%, the
highest reading since the August RBNZ meeting.To get more news about WikiFX, you can visit wikifx official website.
The RBNZ will neither a make monetary policy statement nor hold a press conference and is expected to keep its benchmark interest rate unchanged at the record-low level with no more stimulus, despite the deep recession in the economy.
RBNZ officials previously never showed any dovishness. Currently, the market of interest rate futures does not price in a rate cut by the RBNZ until April next year. NZD's decline looks mainly driven by traders' risk aversion.
Technically speaking, NZD/USD closed below its 50-day moving average while the bearish MACD crossover also points to mounting downward pressure. The New Zealand dollar could face renewed selling pressure if the RBNZ doubles down on its jawboning efforts. Furthermore, NZD/USD could also hasten the decline if the upcoming release of global PMI data from IHS Markit disappoints markets and fuels risk aversion further.

The US Dollar Index bounced up by around 1% after releasing the minute
of Federal Reserve Board on 19 Aug, breaking the record high since this
March. The minute shows that the board tends to adopt more dovish
approach in monetary policy. Yet, Why did the US Dollar Index make such a
big bounce-up, driving those non-US dollar or even precious metal
down？To get more news about WikiFX, you can visit wikifx official website.
According to the minute of Federal Reserve Board, some of the committee members of FOMC agreed to adopt the further easing monetary policy to cope with the negative impact bought by COVID-19; however, traders were disappointed and started to have short covering of USD immediately, driving USD rise a lot.
I believe traders have already predicted and short USD ahead of releasing of minutes; and, they short cover the USD afterwards. It perfectly demonstrates the famous Wall Street‘s buying strategy – “Buy on rumor, sell on fact”. Meantime, the minute also reflects that the officers of the Board won’t set the upper limit or target return for US bonds to secure the position of USD. It drives those “extreme” dovish party disappointed and shows Federal Reserve Board has no further measures on easing monetary policy. Thats why some may interpret as the start of hawk signal instead of dove.
This image has been resized to fit in the page. Click to enlarge.
I agree the Federal Reserve Board intends to adopt more dovish approach to pave the way for adopting further easing monetary policy in future. Since the minute keeps on telling negative towards economy, it drove both DJ index and Nasdaq index drop simultaneously after hitting the record high. With the divergence works between USD and stock; USD index, therefore, increases drastically after releasing of minutes.
Many has talked about the huge short covering of USD, which showed the signal of bouncing up after touching the bottom. Whilst some said this is merely a technical adjustment and will have further drop afterwards. I do think the probability of both scenarios are equal; yet I realize USD dose not have much room for further drop, expecting a strong supporting level around 91.90. Two focusing events may affect the trend of USD - i/ the economic platforms of democratic party proposed by US president candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Devi Harris; ii/ the announcement of Jackson Hole in the Central Bank annual meeting and the market expectation - the new and innovative strategy of easing monetary policy by Powell, the chairman of Federal Reserve Board. If it turns negative and has no new ideas, USD index will be expected to boost up again.
Technically, USD has a strong resistance level at around 94, with 3 times strong selling signal recently, making USD index hard to have another breakthrough. It is estimated to be positive if USD index breaks the 94 level and takes this as the USD reference point.

France introduced new measures to fight the rapid resurgence of the
coronavirus pandemic in major cities, adding to risks weighing on an
already slowing economic recovery in Europe.To get more news about WikiFX, you can visit wikifx official website.
The first significant tightening of restrictions on French daily life since the end of the lockdown in May includes closing bars at 10 p.m. in Paris and several other large urban centers. The tougher restrictions follow similar moves in the U.K., while Austria banned apres-ski partying for the upcoming winter season, as Europe reemerges at a hot spot for the disease.
“If we don‘t take measures rapidly, we risk being in a critical situation in some regions in a few weeks,” Health Minister Olivier Veran said in Paris late Wednesday, insisting that the government isn’t considering another nationwide lockdown.
France is the latest European country to change tack in the face of mounting infection rates as they try to avoid the widespread restrictions that tipped the continent into a deep recession earlier this year. U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson this week abandoned his appeal for Britons to return to offices as he warned of “many more deaths” unless people obey a raft of new restrictions.
The British government is due to set out a fresh round of policies to support jobs on Thursday after abandoning plans for a fall budget. A government official said Wednesday that now is not the right time to outline long-term strategy, a sign the Treasury is preparing for months of economic disruption.

Austria sought to save its ski season by imposing a ban on partying off the slopes after lax controls at the Ischgl resort this spring sparked lawsuits against Chancellor Sebastian Kurzs government. Restaurants and bars will only be allowed to serve seated customers under the new rules.
“Hundreds of thousands of jobs directly or indirectly depend on tourism,” Kurz said. “For all fans of winter sport, one thing is clear: there will be fun on the slopes, but without apres ski.”

There are signs the prospect of harsher curbs has already hit confidence in France, which improved less than expected in September. While business leaders are more upbeat about recent activity, they are losing optimism about the outlook for their own companies and the entire services sector, national statistics agency Insee said.
“Today‘s measures are an extra shock to confidence as it reminds consumers that it isn’t over,” said Julien Manceaux, an economist at ING. While some sectors could be hit, “its not a general shock.”

Chinese consumers are finally starting to spend again after the
pandemic-induced slump, but the recovery is unbalanced and overly
reliant on luxury goods, with poorer Chinese still cautious.To get more
news about WikiFX, you can visit wikifx official website.
Consumption has started to catch up to the much stronger rebound in industrial output, with retail sales growing in August for the first time this year. Spending on luxury goods, cars and electronics is leading the charge, rising faster than food, clothing and other essentials.Source: National Bureau of Statistics, China Passenger Car Association, Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau of Macau SAR.
Note: All data shows % change from previous year*Feb. values show combined Jan.-Feb. data.
While the supply side of Chinas economy has shown resilience, a strong and broad rebound in spending is needed for a more meaningful economic recovery. Even though the virus is under control, income and job losses due to the pandemic have made poorer Chinese unwilling or unable to increase spending, keeping a lid on the rebound.
“Higher-income households have probably built up savings, because of the forced reduction in consumption during lockdown, and could now be ready for a spending spree. It is lower-income households that face a longer slog of normalizing their finances,” He Wei, an analyst at Gavekal Dragonomics, said in a recent report.

What Bloombergs Economists Say...
“Consumer confidence appears to be coming back even without a vaccine. This is reflected in strong pickups in sales of non-essentials, such as cosmetics and jewelry, in recent months. Improved sentiment and spending at home in lieu of overseas trips should help support private consumption.” Luxury spending in China will grow 20%-30% this year, according to a report from Boston Consulting Group, but much of that growth is going to come from consumers in the 50 largest and richest cities. People in the other 2,206 cities bought only a quarter of all luxury goods in April-July this year, and their spending was down 4% compared with 2019, according to the report.
