shermandarlene+FollowThat Dusty Cough Might Be Valley FeverEver heard of Valley fever? It’s a lung infection from a soil fungus that’s popping up in at least 12 states—think Arizona, California, and more. If you’ve got a cough, fever, or weird fatigue that won’t quit (but antibiotics aren’t helping), it could be this! Most people get better on their own, but it can get serious for some. Docs say don’t panic, just know the signs—especially if you’re around a lot of dust. Wild, right? #ValleyFever #HealthAlert #LungHealth #Health10Share
Cassandra Snyder+FollowDogs Are Disease Detectives?Turns out our pups are more than just adorable—they’re actually helping scientists track a dangerous lung infection called valley fever! Researchers studied nearly 835,000 dogs and found that where dogs get sick, humans are at risk too. Most cases pop up in Arizona, but other states are seeing more, possibly thanks to climate shifts. Basically, dogs are like early warning systems for this disease. Next time your dog digs in the dirt, maybe keep an eye out! #ValleyFever #DogHealth #ClimateChange #ScienceNews #PetSafety #Pets30Share
