Members:

Dr. Tricia Kho, ENT has contributed very valuable information concerning the fires and inhalation of the smoke and particulates;

Inhale the smoke is dangerous. The last time we had fires three years , there was an epidemic of valley fever (fungus in the lungs). The hot air aerosolizes the spores in the topsoil. You should also avoid the area if it is windy.

Thank you Dr. Kho.
