No, I'm not from US, but I'm aware of the situation there and I know that the people who died/got sick were vaping bootleg stuff and mostly THC which is not a done thing. And I also know that juice in UK is strictly regulated (or at least I hope so) and supposed to be safe. I'm based in UK, I'm just not from here

Now I've done my fair share of crazy shit in my life, but I'm not going to start buying untested liquids, mixed in a bucket in some basement in China or use my vape trying to get high
(no offence to anyone).
My brother (another brother!) urged me to start vaping. He was also a smoker, but started puffing maybe 3-4 years ago and quit fags completely. He said that it's amazing, and he feels A LOT better for it. Now I definitely prefer to believe my own brother than some scaremongering folk from US. It's just that he lives far away from me, is a more advanced DTL vaper and it's not possible for me to talk to him that often, so I thought I'd come here
