When 21-year-old Connor Evans was admitted to a Pennsylvania hospital for two and a half weeks in May for lung-related issues, he was shocked.

Now, he’s suing the popular e-cigarette company claiming it failed to warn him about the dangers of vaping. "They are selling Juul pods with more nicotine by far than they do anywhere else," said his attorney, Paul Kiesel."What the risks are to adolescent brains is sucking down to nicotine, what the risk is to Connor Evans’ lungs long term, is yet to be told."Currently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration are investigating the growing list of severe lung injuries that have been reported from vaping.

Evans is also alleging that Juul advertised"deliberately to attract minors and young adults, including those who have never even been regular tobacco smokers." Juul, however, maintains its products and marketing are meant for existing adult smokers looking to switch from combustible cigarettes.
