Utah health officials are looking hard at vaping-related illnesses after the cases doubled in number.

This week, officials said there are 21 cases of severe vaping-related illness in the state, up from 10 cases just a few days ago.

They say there are five additional unconfirmed cases.

The C-D-C is investigating nearly 200 cases across the country.

On Friday, the first death due to a vaping device was reported in Illinois.
