According to the Russian media Fontanka, in early March, a ninth grade girl from Saint Petersburg was hospitalized at Filatov Hospital due to acute poisoning. The incident is suspected to have been caused by an e-cigarette, according to the investigation.
Parents discovered the female student on the morning of March 8 next to vomit, holding a cigarette. Currently, the police have launched an investigation. The 15-year-old girl's health condition is worrisome. Doctors diagnosed her with acute poisoning, the toxic substance which will suppress the activity of the central nervous system. The girl comes from a stable family and has not been registered with the juvenile justice system.
There was also a similar case before. A fifth grade boy from Moscow exhibited abnormal behavior after attempting to make his own e-liquid and was admitted to a children's mental health center. Test results revealed that he had powerful drugs in his system that could cause hallucinations.
