Re: Another paper on mold exposure and health shows that mold

1. Danny:

You said:

" there is still no scientific evidence that household mold has ever been

associated with any clinical infection "

I had a client (now deceased) that was immunocompromised [Neurodegenerative

Brain Iron Accumulation Syndrome (NBIA)]. He developed lesions with fungal

infections (lived at home). These appear to have been from a contaminated

carpet (Aspergillus) that was wet from condensation of the Oxygen tank.

I'll leave it at that.

I would say that infections from household mold are possible, but one would

be hard-pressed to show there was a significant increased risk of infection

(not allergy) from the presence of mold except for compromised folks.

Hey Tony,

Where? I am getting about 200 emails a day these days and am monitoring a few chatboards, in addition to moving things forward in DC. Excuse me, did I miss something? Am I suppose to be omnipotent? Post whatever you are talking about here, and I will do my best to answer.

What about aspergillosis and fusarium keratitis?
