Title: The Evolution of a Pediatric Public Health Crisis: E-cigarette or Vaping-Associated Lung Injury Before and After the Appearance of COVID-19
Session Overview: E-cigarettes and vaping products were first introduced in the United States around 2007, and quickly grew in popularity. By 2014, e-cigarettes had become the most commonly used tobacco product among youth in the United States. An e-cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) outbreak was identified by the CDC in 2019, with many cases in the adolescent population. The CDC launched a multistate investigation, and cases reached a peak in September 2019, shortly before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to declining case numbers as well as scarce resources related to the pandemic, the CDC stopped collecting data on EVALI cases in February 2020, but e-cigarettes and vaping products continue to be the most popular tobacco product among youth. We outline the evolution of this public health crisis pre- and post-pandemic, and discuss recommendations to facilitate prevention and management of EVALI in the pediatric population.

Brian Williams, MD – assistant professor, Division of Hospital Medicine & Complex Care, Department of Pediatrics, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health
