Here We Go: Researchers Warn of Dangerous Fungal Illness Rapidly Spreading Across Country ‘Due to Climate Change’ (VIDEO)

Medical professionals are warning the public about a dangerous fungal infection that is rapidly spreading across the country, particularly in the states of California and Arizona.

There has been an increase in reported cases of rare Valley fever, and climate change may be to blame, according to doctors.

Valley fever (also called coccidioidomycosis or “cocci”) is a disease caused by a fungus that grows in the soil and dirt in some areas of California and the southwestern United States, according to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).

“People and animals can get sick when they breathe in dust that contains the Valley fever fungus. This fungus usually infects the lungs and can cause respiratory symptoms including cough, fever, chest pain, and tiredness,” the agency added.

“This is a fungus,” said Perkins, a former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) official. “Most causes of pneumonia are caused by bacteria. This is a fungus that lives in the soil and is breathed in dusty situations, whether it’s a dust storm or around construction or excavation.”

If you live in the Arizona desert you will get Valley Fever…the majority cases are either asymptomatic or feels like a mild cold.

It is strange that millions of unvetted, unvaxxed illegals come into the USA with natural immunities and local citizens come down with strange diseases but Medial Experts never make a connection................

Had it when I was kid, whole family had it.
Yeah you don’t feel great for a few weeks but it won’t kill you unless your severely immune compromised, if you got AIDS (anally inflicted death sentence) it might put you down.

It’s what comes from living in the Mojave Desert, Palmdale, Baker, and other such beautiful places in the USA.

It’s not a big deal, been around for centuries, more people getting it now because more people live in desert climates.

NOTHING TO DO WITH GOREBULL WARMING CRAP!

It could be a real threat or it could be BS. We don’t know. The experts spent all their credibility on politics.

But if the vaxx impairs the immune system, people breathing in the fungus might be more at risk.

It is something city doctors never consider or check for. They have some stupid notion that it is impossible to get in the city. To them it is a “Country” disease only so it must be something else.

Had a friend almost die from it because of this bias neglect. So if you are in the city and think you might have it you have to insist they check for it or they will not.

I had it in the 80s, the first year I lived in Tucson. Coughed a lot for several weeks. When I worked in SW New Mexico, I did know a guy who got very sick from it and spent some time in the hospital.

If there are more cases being reported, it probably has to do with more people living in those areas. Maybe doctors now check for valley fever more routinely, too, I don’t know.

Cases of Valley Fever diagnosed in other states may very likely be due to the exposure to dust during outdoor recreation activities of ‘winter visitors.”

A fungus already took over California a long time ago.

But if the vaxx impairs the immune system, people breathing in the fungus might be more at risk.

So that would require everyone to wear masks and remain in place and lock down the entire economy again?

Most people don't live in the desert. Should they be required to wear masks and remain in place and locked down again too?

Valley Fever has always been most associated with Farm workers who used to come & go in & out of the USA.

I will bet $$$$$$$ that the influx of illegal invaders have brought this scourge back to the USA.
