I have heard a lot about fungus infections that can cause a myriad of health concerns, but I rarely hear about it from mainstream doctors, usually from people who see alternative medicine folks.

Is this like the bird flu? or any number of other crises that cannot go to waste?

It’s what happens when irresponsible people with “compromised immunity” continue to participate in “alternative” lifestyles, all while pumped with anti-virals, anti-biotics, and anti-fungals.

Superbugs jump from their diseased bodies into the general population

So... There’s a fungus among us.
Sorry couldn’t help it.

It’s been reported that it’s been here for ten years and so far five people have died from it ...

I swear:

"It's Always Something".

We'll need a new government agency staffed with more Obama Commies to address this 'disease.'

21 cases, 6 deaths. Hardly the Black Death.

It’s not a tumor! It’s a fungus!

And they had to get in that little “Climate Change” prod too.

To be perfectly honest, it is a little worrisome- it’s not a flash in the pan like a virus. It’ll establish itself in the environment and be here to stay.

I guess the best analogy would be West Nile- it’s not the end of the world, but it is here to stay, and it will get some people, just not many.

Oh well..

“...Freezing can kill the fungus and climate change may be helping it spread, the researchers said.”

Interesting non-sequiteur on that last gratuitous sentence where the reporter just couldn’t resist putting something in there that proved beyond doubt that they were in the Obama IQ set.

Note the use of the term “climate change” as bad and freezing as good.

I thought “climate change” implied warming (you know, that one that all “scientists” claiming it would get an F in physics 101 if they tried that bull-Obama in a class).

“The Killer Fungus from Saskatoon”

Sounds like a boffo second feature at the drive-in this summer (following on the bill after America’s #1 raging blockbuster, “Invasion of the Money Snatchers”)

I guess the people who take immunosuppressant drugs like Enbrel for arthritis had better watch out.

I’m more worried about the spread of the fungus Cryptobamus Status which unchecked leads to the death of Liberty.

Not quite twenty years ago I lived in the Northwest. Had a really dirty, hot, nasty job for several years in an OSB plant. Picked up a fungal ear infection. The docs kept treating me for a viral infection, which helped not at all. Finally one of them figured it out and treated me appropriately. Seriously, I thought I was going to die.
