sick in Yuma
Just got off the phone with a friend of mine who is in Yuma and he said a lot of people are sick with valley fever , the hospital is full and they won't let you visit for fear you will get sick too.

I'm not trying to panic people, but I didn't think I would get it either, as I'm a fit, healthy person, as is my neighbor. Just be aware if you get the symptoms, get checked out by your doctor. With proper care, pretty much the same as the flu, you will be fine.
My wife never thought she had VF, but tested positive for it. May have had it when she lived the Sacramento Valley.
Pets are a bigger worry, as it's hard to know how they feel, and the treatment for VF can be expensive.
VF is getting more attention now because Doctors are able to diagnose it better, and are reporting the cases.
Recent dust storm in July over a Phoenix. This and more like them have made the Phoenix area a hot bed for VF, and the rest of AZ is a endemic area.
