THERE IS MORE WE DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS FROM CHRONIC EXPOSURE TO HIGH LEVELS OF TOXIGENIC MOLDS, SUCH AS STACHYBOTRYS, ASPERGILLUS FUMIGATUS, A. FLAVUS AND A. VERSICOLOR, ETC. BUT THERE IS LITTLE DISAGREEMENT IN THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY THAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF CAUSEING SERIOUS HEALTH EFFECTS, AND NOT JUST IgE ALLERGIES, EITHER. CDC ADMITS THAT THE AFLATOXINS PRODUCED ARE POTENT CARCINOGENS, CDC HAS ALSO PUBLISHED THAT PEOPLE WITH ASTHMA CAN BE SEVERLY AFFECTED BY EXPOSURE TO PATHOGENIC MOLDS.
HOWEVER, THERE IS LITTLE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL DATA AND VERY LITTLE DATA ON CAUSE AND EFFECT AND EVEN LESS SCIENTIFIC DATA ON DOSE/RESPONSE MAINLY DO TO THE MANY CONFOUNDING FACTORS. I HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATING MOLD EXPOSURE CLAIMS SINCE 1972 ALL OVER THE USA AND AM AN EXPERT WITNESS THAT TESTIFIES ABOUT 80 TIMES A YEAR (60/40 DEFENSE/PLAINTIFF)
