The Center for School Mold Help

Why the rise? 

An allergy epidemic is sweeping parts of the world. Sue Emmett reports on a huge study in India which researchers hope will help them discover why. (SMH)

At High Horizons Magnet School, in Bridgeport, CT, it rains inside on both wet and dry days, outside. This is a typical, damp, sick American school that is set up for mold growth. The difference is that these students are learning, through an EPA program, to identify asthma triggers, as are CT health officials and local doctors who are inspecting the school and this program. We have to ask, what will the federal gov't and the State of CT do about damp, moldy schools like these, once identified (and it had to have been obvious before this program was launched) ? Until there are federal and state laws mandating safe and healthy indoor environments for children and school staff, the asthma and chronic illness statistics will skyrocket, reflecting millions of lost opportunities and destroyed lives.

This former teacher with MCS, who disappeared in March en route to Dallas, TX for treatment, has been found - sadly, dead from a car accident. If physicians were trained to help people with MCS and mold, as well as other environmental illnesses, there'd be no reason to drive thousands of miles for help, in a state of mind and body not designed for driving long trips. This former teacher and beloved mother is a victim of the ignorance of our medical societies. Our deepest sympathies are with her family.(SMH)

This case was first reported on last summer, when Dan Pauluk, a Health Dept. Inspector in NV, died from mold exposure experienced in his workplace.Now, his widow, very ill from alleged cross-contamination, is suing (SMH).
