I know somebody in the Bay Area who, a few months ago, was felled by a terrible pneumonia. They ended up performing surgery on him to drain all the fluid from his lungs, which evidently, was much more than is usual in pneumonia. This is the chilly part: his job is handling containers that arrive from Southeast Asia.
He said that the doctors also found "spores" or a "spore" in his lungs which they sent to Stanford. The university was unable to identify the spores for some reason. This all happened right when the news started coming out about this flu.
This friend almost died from it. I do not know if it's related to this killer flu.
