A new George Mason University study reveals that the number of e-cigarette explosion and burn injuries have been underestimated.

The report was published in the journal Tobacco Control, and stated that between 2015 and 2017, there were an estimated 2,035 emergency department visits caused by e-cigarette explosions and burns. Even this number is likely to be lower than the true number of cases, as not all injured people report to the emergency room for these types of injuries.
