On Wednesday, the Trump administration announced plans to ban flavored e-cigarettes, which studies have shown are highly favored by youth.More than 500 cases are now either confirmed or under investigation across the country, as state and federal health investigators continue to try to figure out exactly what in vaping devices is responsible.
