Heads up on a new fungus disease that mimics pneumonia. Airborne spores from a tree fungus is invading the Northwest and causing a pneumonia-like illness in people. It has killed several otherwise healthy people and is even more deadly to folks with compromised immune systems. It is treated with an anti-fungal medication, not antibiotics, so if you have been hacking, get thee to a doctor and be aware of this new curve ball that "friendly" Mother Earth has thrown at humankind.
