It has been around for a while. What really gets to me is that they say it is
do to climate change. You might ask the fine folks in Oregon if they feel like
they are living in tropical climate. The fungus came from south America
probably on drugs being smuggled into the county.

Deadly Gattii Fungus Goes Airborne; Deadliest Infectious Disease in
U.S. History
LONG BEACH, CA--(Marketwire - April 29, 2010) - Duke University
researchers announced April 23, 2010 the emergence of a new airborne
and extremely deadly fungus known as Cryptococcus Gattii. The new
highly virulent Gattii Fungus is transmitted through the air by
inhaling spores from infected trees and it's expected to spread.
The Gattii Fungus is currently emerging in the state of Oregon where
it has infected 21 resulting in 5 deaths, and it is expected to move
southward into California, warned researchers.
Experts are concerned about this new fungus as it has a current death
rate of 25% making it the deadliest infectious disease to ever hit
North America.
In an effort to track the new Gattii Fungus, a website and discussion
forum has been launched where people can find the latest news and
outbreaks. The new site is located at www.Gattii.org
