there is a fungus among us

Re: there is a fungus among us

Alright, I am not alluding to anything, but as atated in the article;

"The airborne fungus, called Cryptococcus gattii, usually only infects transplant and AIDS patients and people with otherwise compromised immune systems, but the new strain is genetically different, the researchers said."

"The spore-forming fungus can cause symptoms in people and animals two weeks or more after exposure. They include a cough that lasts for weeks, sharp chest pain, shortness of breath, headache, fever, nighttime sweats and weight loss."

"It has also turned up in cats, dogs, an alpaca and a sheep."

What happens in the barn should stay in the barn, I am just saying!
