A lung spontaneously collapsing?

Sounds like an undiagnosed condition, or an extreme case of an allergic reaction.

How much medical knowledge do you have?

A good bit, actually.

Granted, 150 cases is a very small number, but if the events they suffer are even more rare, it would be statistically significant.

Agreed, it is a small number. What should be contrasted is the amount of people that have used vaping to ween themselves off of not only cigarettes (one comparison), but nicotine (another) completely. I'll be a sample size of one in both categories because I smoked for 15 years, vaped for 3, and now I don't do any of it. It was a very slow, methodical process to ween off of nicotine using a vape, but it can definitely be done as I know I am not the only one who has successfully pulled it off.

The true number could be far higher.

But, until we can prove a causative link, it doesn't really matter.
