So here I sit - in Oregon - hacking and coughing, my nose running like a leaky faucet, trying to stave off a headache and this is what I read.
Sheesh!

We don’t care to study a new fungus infecting humans? Who do you mean by "we?" What do you mean by "study?"
If you mean biologists and pathologists studying it and publishing papers to people who deal with this stuff all the time, yeah.
If you mean a bunch of news reporters panicking the general public over pathogenic mutations which occur all the time, no.

Isn’t there a cryptococcus spp that thrives in the immunocompromised? Sounds like this may be the case here as well because some fungal nosocomials tend to be from the environment. Perhaps this would explain why the 1 in 4 isn’t panning out unless you have a higher population of immunocompromised individuals.

A deadly, airborne new strain of fungus has emerged in Oregon.
So I guess Oregon gets the flame thrower?
