KIMA ^ | Thursday, October 13th 2016 | KVAL-TV News & Associated Press

The bizarre incident began around 3 a.m. Wednesday when the elderly woman's caregiver, a 52-year-old woman, called authorities to say people were vandalizing her car.

A deputy responded to the home, on East Bay Road in North Bend, but found nothing. The caregiver called back at 5:30 a.m. and was then taken to Bay Area Hospital after deputies suspected the woman might be having a medical issues causing hallucinations.

Medical personnel checked her, she appeared fine and returned home.

Then the two deputies who worked with the caregiver began having hallucinations and had to be hospitalized. After that, the 78-year-old woman and a hospital employee started showing similar symptoms and had to be hospitalized as well.

The Coos County Haz Mat Team responded to Bay Area Hospital and the residence on East Bay Road. The team cleared the emergency room and began decontaminating vehicles and equipment.

We have these huge yellow mushrooms growing which remind you of a Disney movie. So I went to research them and found out they cause hallucinations and are legal.

The 78 year old may have been on O2, wearing a mask.

Frigging viruses and bacteria and spores.

They can’t think but they take us humans down in big numbers. Or at least have in the past.

Or, maybe her mental condition appeared to be deteriorating due to whatever this is, thus the need for a caregiver in the first place?

Mold spores can overwhelm the immune system quite quickly and efficiently.

Well, good thing those mushrooms growing wild around your home aren’t illegal, otherwise somebody would use it as a pretext to seize your property.

Many fungi, wild plants and even landscape plants are capable of producing hallucinations, but that doesn’t mean they’re being used in that manner, or that the owner of the ground in which they’re growing is even aware of the possibility.

N. American fly agaric mushroom is going to cause severe gastric distress, hallucinations less.likely. thank goodness the govt hasn’t declared them illegal; otherwise you would have SWAT popping up along with mushrooms after a rain.

There was a frequent poster to FR several years ago, who would go on at length about those mushrooms. He claimed that Rudolph The Rednosed Reindeer was a reference to them.

There is a mold that can effect flour and cause this. I think there was a book it. I believe it was documented as a cause of a whole town in Europe doing this.

Think the title was The Day of Saint Anthony’s Fire. Written by the same author who wrote the story of Betty and Barney Hill.

Start of the zombie apocalypse.

Be wary of letting anyone in your house who just keeps repeating the world “brains” or has copious amounts of blood on them. Also anyone bearing a Hillary sign.
