Guest guest Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Thunder-road, That is an interesting question. I have often wondered that myself. Seems like it could be a logical conclusion. If viruses spread by airborne 'output' from one human to the next, then why (if a person was susceptible to react to mold) wouldn't they react when exposed to someone who is breathing out mold? Why are secondary infections from aspergillus so prevelent in hospitals? Could it be because the seriously ill are adding additional fungi into the air of hospitals? I don't think there are any studies of what goes into the surrounding air, when a person with mold in their lungs breathes out. But those secondary aspergillus, hospital infections have to be originating from somewhere. Who knows. Wonder where the phrase 'you have cooties' came from? What exactly is a cootie? Could it be slang for cootiebotrys? Sharon In a message dated 6/24/2006 2:01:36 P.M.

Has anyone had the same experience? Can the human pourous body be a reservoir of spores and thus cause others to have allergy symptoms? I have tried buying new clothin, washing and shaving my hair but nothing works. Can anyone direct me to a good source to deal with this? any specialists i could consult via email? my doctor says its psycological, but they do not want to put my observations to the test. doctors seem to operate like an assembly line.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I have wondered if the yeast that is in and on my body can hurt other people. I try to be careful with my towels, etc. but also wondered if I need to be careful near babies. I of course wash hands, etc. when handling babies just in case. > > > Thunder-road, > > That is an interesting question. I have often wondered that myself.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Could this be why several at Detroit Air Traffic Control tower (one of the busiest in the country) tested positive for Chlamydia Pneumoniae? For the record – the FAA's reaction to this finding was NO REACTION!!!!! The same reaction goes for the US Senators, etc… -- no action!! Add this on top of those already stricken with other mold related illness and you've got one safe bunch of air controllers – HA!!! > > > > > > Thunder-road, > > > > That is an interesting question.
