"Double Lung Transplant Saves 22-Year-Old Vaping Victim"
A 22-year-old North Dakota man, Jackson Allard, received a double lung transplant after years of heavy vaping led to hospitalization and a 1% chance of survival due to low oxygen levels from Influenza and double pneumonia. Allard's condition worsened, and he was put on life support, with his heart stopping at one point during his three-month hospital stay. His grandmother attributed his symptoms to vaping and emphasized the dangers, despite his belief that it was better than cigarettes. Allard's life has been permanently altered, as he can never smoke or drink again and will require regular checkups and potentially another transplant in the future.
