Moisture damage and fungal contamination in buildings are a massive health threat - a surgeon's perspective

Abstract

There is evidence for the causality of moisture-induced indoor moulds and severe health threats in these buildings. According to these findings, it is no longer justifiable to ignore or trivialize the mould contamination induced by moisture damage and its effects on pulmonary and extrapulmonary diseases. The health and economic implications of these attitudes are clear.
