An ex-student has called me with questions about a report on the news
about an organism that grows on wet wood or sheet rock and causes
respiratory effects and ultimately brain damage. I haven't kept up with
the news so I am not sure what she is talking about. If any of you have
any information I would be pleased to here anything.
She would also to find out about a reputable lab that can come and test
her recently flooded house for the organism (or any like it). She has
small children and is worried.
