Notes from the Field: Characteristics of E-cigarette, or Vaping, Products Confiscated in Public High Schools in California and North Carolina - March and May 2019

[...]not all schools retained confiscated e-cigarettes and other products, and some were discarded before the assessment. [...]school staff members had varying ability to accurately identify easily concealable products or those that resemble common objects like flash drives. [...]the devices and products examined by investigators, as well as those confiscated and collected, might not be representative of all devices used by students. [...]the contents of the confiscated products were not assessed.
