Very interesting that the e-cigarette problem, which has actually been rising only in recent months (they've been around for years now), and involves roughly 450 people (according the the Wall Street Journal piece: https://www.wsj.com/articles/what-we-know-about-vaping-relat... ), whereas falls from ladders cause about 355 deaths annually in the U.S. ( https://blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-science-blog/2017/03/13/ladder-s... ).
No one is talking about banning or even changing ladders.
Qui bono?
