A member asked:
Can black mold cause pneumonia and can it be confused with other type and not be cured because the proper medicine is not being used .help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Exposure to a high level of mold may cause a pneumonitis or inflammatory condition of the lungs but this is very uncommon. Mold on your house may trigger allergies but it's unlikely to pneumonia in the truest sense. As far as differing from other mods, you have to ask a mycologist!
