Make 'em watch Reefer Madness

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Dr. Angela Houchin is a pediatrician with UK HealthCare. She says the effects of vaping marijuana are much stronger than smoking it.

“The marijuana that is used in vapes specifically is 60-80% concentrate, compared to what they used to call a joint, which could just be 20% THC,” said Dr. Houchin.

Part of the concern, Dr. Houchin says, is that you often don’t know how your body will respond, especially when children and teens use these vapes.
