And isn't one of the common threads within this whole thing the presence of Vitamin E acetate within the oil?
Earlier reports were suggesting that contaminated oils may be part of the cause, which could explain why all these cases are hitting at once. Not sure on the process of making these oils, but I could see new methods being introduced causing unforeseen side affects.

The initial NY report mentioned also that they were likely counterfeit products, which I could easily see as being prone to use an unsafe substitution.
