Gulf Coast could experience 'Mold Allergy Outbreak'

[Guest guest]

I haven't been able to read or post lately but couldn't resist

posting this that I heard on the Today Show this morning regarding

the " dangerous " mold damage to buildings in flood zone.

With an introduction to segment that the flooded homes, still in

water, and area in general having a 100% humidity for over two weeks

now, there is rapid growth of mold, describing it as very hard to

clean and a health hazard and showing pictures of it ALL OVER THE

PLACE! That's pretty accurate but it became disappointing from

there. A CDC representative, Dr Redd, went on to elaborate,

warning of the impending health hazard, " With the degree of exposure

so great in these buildings, it could actually trigger allergies to

mold. For people who already are allergic to mold, it could trigger

symptoms such as hay fever, skin rashes and asthma attacks. "

As Katrina is described as the worse natural disaster in our

lifetime to strike the US, this statement from the CDC could be the

biggest understatement in our lifetime of the possible health

consequences of the mold growth in this flood ravaged area.

This is a lie. He may not know it but there are people in authority

who do. Apparently this may be Part II of how the federal

government lets down it's citizens in the wake of Hurricane

Katrina.
