En raison des changements climatiques, le territoire du #Coccidioïde (#cocci), un dangereux champignon qui s'attaque aux poumons, s'agrandit. Le cocci se cache dans le sol et lorsque le vent soulève la poussière ou que des activités humaines remuent le sol (construction, terrassement, etc.), il peut y avoir infection par voie respiratoire.
Il n'existe pas, en ce moment, de traitement efficace contre la coccidioïdomycose. Le cocci résiste aux antifongiques.

Valley fever scares the shit out of me. I found out about this fungal disease when we adopted our puppy @luna. She was three-months-old when she got pneumonia. After all normal treatments failed, her vet finally decided to try anti-fungal treatments. Within hours she improved, but the spores remain in her system. She's almost five now, but still depends on daily medication to hold the fungus at bay.
The disease impacts humans the same way. Some are cured quickly, in others it becomes chronic, having to spend hundreds of dollars a month on medication.
Oh, and this is another disease that's thriving because of
climate change.

Yesterday I diluted the jar 7:1 with more tap water. There are fewer bugs now, as expected. The jar is still cloudy but the cloudiness seems less yellow and more white.
Yesterday the cocci (sphere-shaped bacteria) were usually either singletons or pairs, but now they more often seem to come in straight lines of 4 or 8.
Also something new has appeared: tubes! The tubes are about 4x thicker than the cocci, and they have a dark spot at the front and back. I suspect the dark spots are just refraction artifacts, and the tubes are hollow like straws. All the tubes seem to be the same size. I almost wonder whether the cocci make them like shells.
