State public health officials on Monday announced five more reported cases of vaping-related illness, bringing the statewide total of Massachusetts cases reported to federal health authorities to 10.

Of the newly announced cases, two were confirmed to have a vaping-related injury, while in three cases vaping was thought to be the probable cause of an injury, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health in a release. The state said it reported the new cases were to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“While no one has pinpointed the exact cause of this outbreak of illness, we do know that vaping and e-cigarettes are the common thread and are making people sick,’’ the state’s public health commissioner, Dr. Monica Bharel, said in a statement.
